Tereza Bušková (nar. 1978 v Praze) je uznávaná česká výtvarnice, která žije a působí ve Velké Británii. Po absolvování Royal College of Art v Londýně Tereza přesídlila do Birminghamu, kde se věnuje multidisciplinárnímu umění. Její tvorba čerpá z českých i britských rituálů a tradic, jež jedinečným způsobem oživuje a zpřítomňuje, často za aktivní účasti místních komunit. Svou kreativitou a láskou k oběma domovům výtvarnice již řadu let podporuje Český a slovenský klub v Birminghamu. V roce 2017 Tereza rovněž navázala úspěšnou spolupráci se základní školou, již navštěvují její dvě děti. Zde založila populární výtvarný kroužek. Její výuka je od září 2020 přístupná online i širší veřejnosti. www.terezabuskova.com Instagram: @tereza.buskova @art.club.birmingham |
Tereza Bušková is a Czech artist who lives in Birmingham with her young family. Her practice celebrates and reinterprets long established customs - particularly ritual, tradition and craft as carriers of identity and belonging. She works in print, video, performance and public art projects, including staging large-scale participatory events with local communities. Slavic rituals were often the starting point for her work, however, since being based in Birmingham Buskova researches and explores other European customs, which are reinvented with her collaborators and community stakeholders. Frequent collaborators are costume maker and designer Mariana Novotna, performer and artist Zoe Simon and cellist-composer Bela Emerson.
Bušková completed her Fine Art Printmaking MA at the Royal College of Art in 2007. Her work has been exhibited at Rituals, David Roberts Art Foundation, London (2008); A Tradition I Do Not Mean To Break, Zabludowicz Collection, London (2009); Rituals Are Tellers Of Us, Newlyn Art Gallery, UK (2013); and Reality Czech: The Czech Avant-Garde, Whitechapel Gallery, London (2015). She has exhibited, performed and lectured in a broad range of different spaces, including Lincoln's Chambers Farm Wood (2010), Kunstnernes Hus, Oslo (2014), Erdington High Street, Birmingham, UK (2016), Hidden Mothers, London Festival of Architecture, Peckham (2021) and she is currently working on her new public art project 'Little Queens', supported by the Arts Council England. In 2017 Bušková started an after school art club at Chad Vale Primary school. In 2021, she and the artist Lucia Húsková, began a series of art workshops organised by Okénko in London specialising in Czech and Slovak artists. |
