Alex Selmeci & Tomáš Kocka Jusko: TOWER part II - exhibition

Tower part II is the title of the exhibition at the VUNU Gallery in Kunsthalle/Halle Kunst, which is the second part of a three-part cycle - the first part is at Šopa Gallery Košice, the last at the Hunt Kastner Gallery in Prague.

The exhibition, curated by Alex Selmeci and Tomáš Kocka Jusko, explores units of measurement of various kinds - from the international SI system, through traditional and intuitive units, to informal ways of measurement based, for example, on the amount of work done. Inspiration comes from the oil industry's notion of a 'tower', denoting a work shift. It represents the layering of hours, fatigue and the rhythm of working 24/7.

The exhibition, which is open to the public from 18 September to 5 October 2025, also reflects on the relationship between work, rest and the social ecosystem: sleep and rest are not only an individual need, but enable a sustainable coexistence of life in the larger community.
