Abstracts

EN

Miloš Karásek is a Slovak artist active in several fields of arts, i.e. in stage design and stage direction, drama production, and also in painting and sculpture. He is the author of several manifestos, which are deliberately provocative and frame the various stages of his creation: theatre production in Prešov, Trnava and Bratislava (Stoka Theatre Company), parallel creation of mythical bronze statues, the so-called post theatre, which was a project of rhythmycising the sending of postal envelopes, with the climax being an experimental theatre performance, and dramatic creation for his own theatrical productions. One of his plays – Život na mieru (Customised Life), staged by Alexander Duchnovič Theatre in Prešov, under Karásek’s direction and with his stage design, may be regarded as a unique form of a manifesto, in which his ambition to be ahistorical, hedonistic, and sceptical is declared.
