This image shows one of the works by JIŘÍ KOVANDA that are currently on view at the project space Lulu in Mexico.
JIŘÍ KOVANDA is a Czech artist who made a name for himself with his performances and actions in the 1970s and 1980s. Beside them KOVANDA creates collages, paintings and objects with the aim to differ from the ordinary everyday life in very subtle ways, the more subtle it is, the better, as if nothing is going on as KOVANDA told in a interview with ADAM BUDAK.
A few interviews are available online but one of the more comprehensive is conducted by HANS ULRICH OBRIST and is entitled Conversation I: I always felt that I didn’t need a studio.
