About the exhibition:
When we set out on journeys, we put on shoes. Sometimes we take a staff to lean on or to clear our path. We fortify ourselves with food; we are prepared. But after some time, we grow weary and ask ourselves: what is the purpose of this journey we were invited on, why are we toiling here, why us specifically, why must we suffer...? These are thousand-year-old questions that we pose to God repeatedly with defiance and distrust. We reproach Him for being silent, for not guiding us sufficiently, for not existing. Martina Špinková will open these audacious questions in her own way in the space of the Milevsko synagogue - through paintings, drawings, and installations.
Exhibition curator: Tereza Špinková
In cooperation: Galerie Výhybka

We look forward to your visit!
28th October at 7 p.m.
Join us for the screening of slides from the Milevský Hussite congregation's archive. The slides will give us insight into the events within the congregation, as well as in our Milevsko. The slides cover the years 1950 - 1970. We will also commemorate the opening of the congregation in the synagogue in 1950 :)
