project proposal Martin Sedlak
First i would like to use as much as I can the contacts you propose to me, to contact your cultural partners in purpose to present my own visual art projects and other projects with participation of foreign artists. {czech, austrian}
I would like to find partners for the future exhibition as i know there will be other artists during my stay.
I would like to start, for example,a colaboration with Mr. Vanek, if he is interested in, as I find our works near not only in ideas, but also in the means of realisation.
Till aproximatly June 2004 I would like to finish a book of original graphical prints {about 200 pages}, that will be presented also as an exhibition. I`ll see if this project is interesting enought to be presented in Austria.
