The exhibition "Zack Zack - Interieur Underground" sheds light on the origins of artistic resistance to the communist dictatorship and pays tribute to the courage of dissidence and counterculture. Through creative forms of expression such as play, confrontation and friction, artists developed survival strategies and aesthetic tactics that helped them to survive in a repressive regime.

Reinhard Zabka's exhibition is dedicated to the spirit of the Peaceful Revolution: its power to transform, its ability to create a flow that gave people self-confidence, trust and conviction.

In the concluding performance, dancer and choreographer Valentina Cabro acts as a social sculpture in the space. The audience - whether affected, uninvolved, skeptical or resistant - is drawn into the movement of the street, the social upheavals and can directly empathize with the events.
