An exhibition following-up on the project “Report on the Flight of Icarus.” The Olomouc 1960s as reflected in the art culture with a special attention being paid to the period of ‘normalisation’. The visitors to the exhibition will have the opportunity to learn about the wide range of artistic views and phenomena of the period. This includes the official art, semi-official art as well as works of art by the artists who were opposed to the political regime. The exhibition and the accompanying book are intended be a contribution to the current debate concerning the character of that period as for to what extent was the spirit of the time reflected in different and often antagonistic art phenomena.
