The annual exhibition of the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague presents a selection of student works created during the 2014/2015 academic year. At the same time it constitutes a representative culmination to the celebrations of the 130 year jubilee of founding of the school.
The exhibition comprises selected works from all 23 studios as well as works resulting from the Visual Arts English language study programme. Apart from the exhibits themselves, the show attempts, via critiques by the professional community, to bring a critical perspective on the issue of art education and the institution itself. UMPRUM ATTACK! aims to create a critical platform that would help bring feedback to the school, as well as presenting the institution to the public as an environment of creative chaos, open-ended experimentation, professional discipline, a proud tradition and a compulsion to take a stance in opposition to it.
