Exhibition Kiss: Monsters Kissing Better explores transformations of contemporary figuration, intimacy, and identity—balancing between tenderness and grotesque, the human and the digital. The kiss recurs as a symbol of desire, connection, and decay. Curator Olga Trčková has created a multilayered dialogue between established artists and a new generation, where classical painting meets hybrid forms and cybernetic aesthetics. Exhibiting artists: Josef Bolf, Martin Eder, Glorie Grünwaldová, Jan Heres, Tina Hrevušová, Dajana Hroššová, Marianna Ignataki, Michal Janovský, Ema Kissová, Anna Krištofíková, Olga Krykun, Michael Kunze, Filip Kůrka, Laura Limbourg, Pavla Malinová, Barbora Mikudová, Justin Mortimer, Anselm Reyle, Lucie Rosická, Jakub Ružinský, Adéla Singerová, Jan Slanina, Charlie Stein, Alexander Tinei, Jakub Tomáš, Barbora Šlapetová, Tereza Štětinová, Leonard Železo.
