Anima
Mundi
20 October—12 November 2026
Curated by Anna Kodl, Ph.D.

The exhibition
Presented in the modernist spaces of Galerie Mánes, Anima Mundi brings Maxim Havlíček’s calligraphic fields into direct conversation with architecture, distance and changing light.
The exhibition begins with the recognition that every order is provisional and every form holds only for a moment before it starts moving again. Across linen, cotton, satin, polyester and found fabrics, one line responds to what is already present. Layers accumulate without settling around a fixed centre; the paintings become fragments of a field that appears capable of continuing beyond their edges.

Galerie Mánes
One of Prague’s defining modernist exhibition spaces, Mánes gives the series a scale at which individual marks become architecture: repeated, dispersed and held together across the room.
