Holder of Jindřich Chalupecký Award 2008
“Radim Labuda uses the medium of video in unexpected ways: sometimes he is poetic and other times strikingly unconventional. He succeeds in connecting themes of contemporary culture and art with his own personal stories, composing his footage almost like paintings. At first glance, they are ordinary and ephemeral; sometimes they contain a narrative and sometimes they are almost abstract.” (Jury statement)
Radim Labuda (born 1976) spent a year studying at Tony Labat's studio at the San Francisco Art Institute after his studies at the Faculty of Architecture in Bratislava and under Miloš Šejn at the Intermedia Studio at the Academy of Fine Arts and under Michael Bielický at the New Media Studio. In recent years, the visual artist Radim Labuda has been participating in non-artistic activities as an "artist in post-praxis", engaging himself in a variety of activities that may or may not be art. He works on installations, political art, sound installations and video art, as well as music curation, cooking and narrative art. He is a founding member of the Punctum collective, which has been operating an independent cultural and community centre in Prague's Žižkov district for several years. He was a finalist for the Oskar Čepan Prize in 2005 and has had residencies and exhibitions at ISCP in New York, Litløy fyr in Norway and 47 Sedgwick Rd in London.
