Information

We support artists of national and international impact and considerable cultural importance.

Trafo Gallery is a private exhibition hall in the premises of the former slaughterhouse, Hall 14 of the Holešovice market, which since 2006 has represented outstanding artists not only from the generation of its founders. Jan Kaláb, Jakub Nepraš, Michal Cimala and Blanka Čermáková were at the birth of what is now the former Trafačka, who still shape the exhibition program together today. In cooperation with leading Czech curators (Otto M. Urban, Petr Vaňous, Radek Wohlmuth, Jan Kudrna, Kristýna Jirátová, Tomáš Pospiszyl and others) and Czech and foreign artists, Trafo Gallery prepares six exhibitions a year, for which it publishes non-traditional bilingual narrative publications.

The exhibition program focuses on contemporary Czech and international artistic creation, mainly of the middle generation, it is devoted to painting, sculpture, intermedial installations, graffiti, photography, drawing and others. In addition to the domestic program, we participate in foreign fairs and occasionally exhibit outside our premises. The gallery program includes regular guided tours, workshops, lectures, projections, performances, etc.

Trafo Gallery provides studios to several artists - Jan Kaláb, Jakub Nepraš, Michal Cimal and Zdeněk Trs.

Trafo Gallery is currently the third modification of the institution, which was founded as Spolek Trafačka in 2006. More than a hundred artists worked at the original address in the former transformer station in Vysočany, Prague, and over 200 exhibitions and cultural events took place there. Until the end of our existence in the Vysočany factory at the end of 2014, we managed a multicultural center with 37 studios and a DIY gallery. Since 2015, as Trafo Gallery, we have relocated to Příčná Street (Ex Post), from where we moved after a short stage to the premises of Hall 14 in Holešovické tržnica, where we have been running an exhibition program since September 2016, based mainly on the middle generation of artists from the Czech Republic and abroad and accompanied by rich publishing activity.
