Toyen – Všechny barvy samoty

Marie Čermínová, known under the name Toyen, is a provocative mystery. She was a star who never gave a single interview, and although she was a participant in the seminal events that shaped art and society in the twentieth century, she never gave a single testimony. In addition to his work. That's all she wanted to leave behind. Otherwise, she carefully swept the tracks.

Toyen is an intricate labyrinth. A mermaid that can be mistaken for the back of a wave. A depth in which awareness of direction is easily lost. He is a water monster or perhaps a demon from the forest. Toyen is a poem.

In this production, the joy of the interwar avant-garde is an echo. Likewise, the subsequent hell of dictatorships is just a bad dream. What's left? Toyen as a geeky old Parisian who goes to the movies to watch porn and is constantly cutting and pasting something. Toyen, who knows that she will never return to Prague. Toyen, who no longer believes in happy endings. Perhaps she knows that the depth to which she has delved through art has no end. What has she been hunting for in her all her life? Freedom? Did she catch her? Or did it slip out of her hand? Maybe. But she definitely touched her.
