Radek Brousil & Viktor Timofeev: The Hammer Strikes the Bell

How can one depict the city today when it is no longer merely an urban whole, but also a psychic landscape, a data infrastructure, and a space of permanent tension? And how can one grasp the metropolis at the moment when its everyday reality breaks down into layers of personal projections, collective affects, and invisible systems that shape our movements, relationships, and modes of perception? The international exhibition project The Hammer Strikes the Bell by New York-based Latvian artist Viktor Timofeev and Czech artist Radek Brousil, prepared together with curators Boris Ondreička and Pavel Kubesa for Prague’s NoD Gallery, enters precisely this field of meaning. Here, the city does not appear as a stable backdrop, but as a living, multilayered organism in which subjective experience collides with the logic of late-postmodern infrastructures. The joint project by Brousil and Timofeev is conceived as a complex exhibition situation in which images, drawings, and a spatial site-specific installation are interwoven into a scenographic whole. The exhibition reflects the specific chronotope of the metamodern gigapolis — a city that is simultaneously a concrete place and a mental state, a set of material structures and a field of imagination. The artists are interested in the intricate image of buildings, people, technologies, and collective psyche that emerges from the structures of today’s metropolises. The exhibition is therefore not built on a mere dialogue between two media or two artistic signatures. More important is the very nature of their encounter: both Brousil and Timofeev have long cultivated a sensitivity to what remains beneath the surface of the visible world, whether power regimes, infrastructures, cultural codes, or unspoken models of identity. From this perspective, The Hammer Strikes the Bell transforms the gallery space into a situation in which the city becomes not only a theme, but also a method. The viewer does not enter a closed narrative, but rather a mutable scenery in which a wide range of individual and collective dramas may unfold. Viktor Timofeev (*1984), whose practice clearly extends beyond the framework of Central and Eastern Europe, is an internationally established artist living and working in New York, whose interdisciplinary practice brings together drawing, painting, video, sound, software, and experimental games into complex environments situated at the intersection of autofiction, worldbuilding, and systems thinking. In 2025, he presented his most extensive museum exhibition to date, Other Passengers, at the Latvian National Museum of Art in Riga; he has also exhibited at the Hessel Museum of Art in New York, Bozar in Brussels, and the National Gallery in Prague. Radek Brousil (*1980) enters this dialogue as an artist who has long reflected on the relationship between image, material, and social reality. In his post-photographic approach, he combines photography with textile, object, video, installation, and painting, and consistently engages with socio-political and environmental themes, postcolonial tendencies, and the question of a “new sensibility.” His work grows out of a critical relationship to standardized interpretations of late capitalism, the Anthropocene, and global power relations, and has increasingly also turned toward the politics of time. Brousil is among the notable figures of the Czech art scene with strong international experience, as confirmed by his projects in London, Brussels, Budapest, Tokyo, and other institutions.

GAIKA (UK)

Gaika has proven he is a creative force to be reckoned with, breaking ground sonically and aesthetically. Blending dancehall, grime and electronica, and with his live shows providing a visual experience like no other, his show on the 30th of October is not one to be missed. Now he presents his debut album, BASIC VOLUME, after captivating listeners with a blistering pair of acclaimed,self-released mixtapes Machine and Security and Warp-released EPs SPAGHETTO and The Spectacular Empire. Besides his audio-visual shows he presents his opinions and ideas in writing and sculptures too, not being afraid of criticising the system, police or government. His show at NoD will certainly give you some food for thought.

Alex Clare (UK): Acoustic Tour / support: Lukas Landa

BRIT Award-nominated UK-born and Jerusalem-based multiplatinum singer and songwriter Alex Clare is bringing his upcoming record to Prague’s NoD. Collecting favorites from his three previous studio albums and a cover of Bill Withers’ Hope She’ll Be Happier, his first-ever acoustic album Three Days At Greenmount sees him get back to basics, while roaring louder than ever.  

FLYING HORSEMAN (BE)

Their music will embrace you but can not be easily captured in words. Appreciated by a majority of Belgian music critiques, Flying Horseman will come to Prague for the first time! The sextet around songwriter Bert Dockx surrounds you with bitter post-rock and nocturnal folk. Imagine a midnight walk through a dark forest. It can be ominous yet unbearably serene. Through the years, the Antwerp based band have developed a rich, organic sound that is theirs only. Rooms / Ruins, their fifth album, is a capricious, vibrant and strange affair that will send you inwards before catapulting you into space. If you fancy something similar to the sound of Nick Cave, save the date: 21. November, 19:00 at NoD!

KELLY LEE OWENS (UK)

A series of concerts WOWs – Wonderwomen Save You will make its return to NoD with Kelly Lee Owens among others this autumn. The 28 year old musician will perform bits from her self-titled debut album she has made overflowing with experiments in electronic music that oscillate between cavernous techno, dreamy pop and krautrock rhythms. Despite her brief career, you most likely have already heard her voice and contributions on Daniel Avery’s album Drone Logic that was released in 2013. Besides that, she’s worked with names like St. Vincent or Jenny Hval. And that is just a beginning. Kelly Lee Owens will make her Czech debut on 6/11 at NoD. Tickets will be available from 26/7 via GoOut for 320 czk.

Concert: The Light in the Voice

A unique musical fusion, Chinese, mongolian jazz. Start at 19:00. 

LILLY AMONG CLOUDS (GER)

Her voice will bring melancholy without sadness. Lilly Among Clouds creates majestic songs full of beauty and harmony that will embrace you with an intimate pop feeling. She has been very prolific during her brief career that started just in 2015 with a self-titled EP. Last year, this 28-year-old German songwriter followed it with a proper album called Aerial Perspective. There she created a warm & deep space out of vibrant beats, compelling sounds and atmospheric guitars always allowing her voice to shine.   After a successful gig a Colours of Ostrava, she’s coming back to Czechia and will enlighten you with her dreamy pop sound on 10/10 at NoD. Tickets will be available from 31/7 via GoOut for 300 czk.

Julien Baker / support: Becca Mancari

Singer-songwriter from Memphis Julien Baker is coming to Prague for the first time. Her tender voice will resonate through NoD on September 14th 2018. A country singer Becca Mancari to open the evening.  Twenty two year old singer and guitarist Julien Baker started making music at the university with her band Forrister. She started playing solo in 2015 when releasing her debut album Sprained Ankle. It was a collection of humbly rendered folk songs, dealing with the topics of depression, substance abuse and also a crisis of faith, since Baker claims to be Christian. During her short career, she opened for bands and musicians like Death Cab For Cutie, Conor Obers or Belle & Sebastian. In 2017, she got signed by Matador Records (Cat Power, Interpol, Pavement, Yo La Tengo) and released her second album Turn Out The Lights. The album is more expansive in sound and vision but the real draw is Baker's songwriting and lyricism. The result finds Baker narrating a deliberate meditation on how we each try to deal with our ever-shifting mental health, and the impact this can have on both ourselves and others. The album sets out to address how the process of coping with internal conflicts affects different relationships – romantic, familial, and friendly. Baker turns outward to embrace the challenges of the human experience, weaving personal struggles together into one surprisingly hopeful chorus.
