Katerina Seda: *1977

This title brings together the first complete survey of projects by the young Czech artist Katerina eeda. The artist’s book is in the form of a box containing 10 folders which document each project (diagrams, graphs, drawings, texts, photographs, questionnaires) that eeda carried out from 1999-2007. The artist bases her work on the observation of ‘invisible’ contexts and social relationships between individuals in her most immediate surroundings - within her family and her birthplace, Ponetovice, a village in the Moravian countryside. The observations she makes (in the form of drawings, texts and diagrams) then prompt a series of assignments, tasks and games which she carries out in those surroundings. For example, her ‘society game’ called Nic tam neni (There’s Nothing There) 2003, involved the participation of all the inhabitants of Ponetovice. eeda’s newest project is exhibited at Documenta XII.This publication is the fourth volume of the series Tranzit , edited by Vit Havranek and focusing on Central and Eastern Europe artists.
