Vladimír Škoda: Order and Intuition
Curator: Jiří Machalický
6 May 2026 – 18 July 2026
Vladimír Škoda’s work stems from a long-standing interest in cosmic space, planetary systems, and the forces determining their formation, movement, and disappearance. Drawing from mathematics, physics, and astronomy, the artist is inspired by figures such as Johannes Kepler, Giordano Bruno, and Nikola Tesla.
Principles of energy, vibration, and frequency are reflected in objects that rotate, vibrate, or mirror their surroundings. The works activate relationships between movement, light, and perception, creating dynamic situations situated between scientific models and intuitive imagination.
Order and Intuition presents sculpture as a space in which cosmological reflections are transformed into physical and visual experience.

Alexey Klyuykov: Disturbed Horizon
15 May 2026 – 13 June 2026
Disturbed Horizon presents a series of paintings by Alexey Klyuykov situated on the threshold between construction and collapse. Fragments of buildings, landscapes, and ruins form images in which reality subtly shifts and loses its stability.
Underlying the works is a sense of disorientation and wandering through spaces between what was never completed and what has already disappeared. Here, Klyuykov explores contemporary possibilities of realism grounded in disruption and the uncertainty of the image itself.
His paintings address the fragility of space and perception, transforming the realist image into a condition of constant reconfiguration of meaning.

Patrik Hábl: Anatomy of Time
9 April 2026 – 31 May 2026
The exhibition Anatomy of Time at Galerie Ethera presents a selection of works by Patrik Hábl in which time functions as the primary organizing principle of painting. Here, the image emerges through a process of gradual accumulation, correction, and material transformation.
Hábl approaches the surface as a site of concentrated layered work, where individual interventions create tension between density and light, concealment and revelation. Form stabilizes through time, while the structure of the painting itself retains traces of its making.
The exhibition considers time as an energy that shapes both the material and the final form of the artwork.

Zdeněk Sklenář: A Dream Fulfilled
22 April 2026 – 11 July 2026
A Dream Fulfilled presents the most comprehensive survey of painter Zdeněk Sklenář’s work ever held in a private gallery. Through works from state institutions and private collections, the exhibition traces the development of his artistic language from early attempts to merge drawing and painting into a harmonious whole to the abstract compositions for which he became renowned.
The retrospective also serves as a tribute to an artist whose work significantly influenced subsequent generations of Czech art. For gallerist Zdeněk Sklenář, the artist’s nephew, the exhibition represents a personal culmination of long-term efforts to preserve and continuously present his uncle’s legacy.
The exhibition emphasizes the gradual formation of Sklenář’s painterly language and reveals the transition from figurative foundations toward abstract image structures.
