Kafkaesque

The catalogue for the KAFKAesque exhibition brings together the works of more than thirty internationally renowned artists whose work reflects the legacy of Prague-born Franz Kafka. With its references to existential fears and personal anxieties, Kafka's work proves to be highly relevant to our times. In addition to their works, the artists represented bring commentary in the form of personal reflection or recollection of their first encounter with Kafka's work. The book also includes text by all three curators (Otto M. Urban, Leoš Válka, Michaela Šilpochová) who participated in the exhibition. This is not an ordinary exhibition catalogue, but a timeless publication that every admirer of Franz Kafka should have in his or her library.
