As they attempt to settle in\, they encounter a closed community shaped by unspoken rules\, strange coincidences\, and fragments of local folklore. Using the familiar tale of Little Red Riding Hood\, subtly woven into the narrative\, the story illuminates themes of vulnerability\, trust\, and hidden menace. \nBlending psychological insight with folkloric resonance\, Playing Wolf explores how myths and inherited stories continue to influence behaviour and relationships in the present day. The conversation will reflect on the role of folklore and fairy-tale motifs in the novel\, and on how quiet tensions within families and communities can slowly transform lives. \nZuzana Říhová studied Czech language and literature and comparative literature at Charles University in Prague. She has published a collection of poetry\, Pustím si tě do domu (I’ll Let You in My House)\, and a novella\, Evička (Little Eve). \nAlex Zucker’s translations include novels by Magdaléna Platzová\, Jáchym Topol\, Bianca Bellová\, Petra Hůlová\, and Tomáš Zmeškal. He has also translated plays\, subtitles\, young adult and children’s books\, poems\, philosophy\, art history\, and an opera. \nKathryn Murphy is Fellow and Tutor in English Literature at Oriel College\, Oxford\, where she writes about and teaches seventeenth-century literature. Her book\, Robert Burton: A Vital Melancholy is forthcoming from Reaktion. She studied Czech literature at the University of Glasgow\, and reviews Czech fiction for the Times Literary Supplement. \nAdmission: £5 (+ Eventbrite fee)\nBook Here \nZuzana Říhová will also appear in Oxford the day before\, on Wednesday 4 March 2026\, for a special event at The Queen’s College exploring poetry in translation alongside a reading from Playing Wolf.

Through the pieces featured in the exhibition—portraits\, personal objects\, clothing\, documents\, photographs\, and artworks related to her life—the presentations will offer the audience a multidimensional view of a queen whose biography was shaped by historical tensions\, social transformations\, and personal challenges.\n\nVictoria Eugenie of Battenberg\, born in Scotland in 1887 and Queen Consort of Spain following her marriage to Alfonso XIII in 1906\, lived through a decisive period in European history: the rapid modernization of cities\, the emergence of new artistic sensibilities\, the rise of the mass media\, and the profound political changes that culminated in the Second Republic and her subsequent exile. The lecture examines how the exhibition brings these contexts together to portray not only the institutional figure\, but also the woman\, wife\, and mother who had to adapt to an often-hostile environment.\n\nThe lecture will also highlight the museographic contribution of the Gallery of the Royal Collections\, emphasizing how the exhibition uses visual and narrative resources to bring closer to visitors a figure who remains largely unknown to the general public. In this sense\, the exhibition becomes not only a historical journey\, but also an invitation to reflect on the role of women in monarchy\, the construction of memory\, and the dialogue between past and present.\n\nThe presentations will be given by:\n\n Víctor Cageao – Director at National Heritage\, who will speak about the Royal Collections and National Heritage.\n Alessandro Nasini – Senior Curator of Photographs at Royal Collection Trust\, who will discuss the collection of photographs from Queen Victoria Eugenie’s childhood and youth.\n Arantxa Domingo and Reyes Utrera\, the exhibition’s curators\, who will speak about the exhibition.\n\nEvents in English and Spanish with an English interpreter.

Participants are encouraged to engage in shared creative processes and moderated discussions\, exploring themes of philosophy\, history\, and contemporary art. The programme moves beyond traditional presentation models\, emphasising collaboration\, critical thinking\, and collective reflection in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. \nThe guided tour offers an open platform where artistic practice and intellectual exchange meet in a live\, communal\, and warm setting. \n\n\nGéza Starmüller (b. 1966\, Cluj) is a contemporary visual artist and sculptor based in Transylvania. The fourth generation of artists in his family\, his practice is rooted in a lifelong engagement with art\, supported by both family heritage and formal training. He studied sculpture at the University of Art and Design in Cluj-Napoca and further developed his practice through private mentorships and international art camps. \nWorking primarily with conceptual and spiritual foundations\, his artistic language unfolds through oil painting and bronze sculpture\, and more occasionally through stone and wood. His work explores the moment when spirit penetrates matter\, an approach he defines as cosmic surrealism. Influenced by philosophy\, diverse cultures\, personal life experience\, and place\, his creative process often begins with an intuitive vision that matures over the years into its final form. \nStarmüller has participated in numerous national and international group exhibitions and has contributed to major public art projects\, including the restoration of the Statue of Liberty in Arad\, as well as other monuments in Romania and abroad.

Klára Hosnedlová’s corporeal\, immersive installations address utopian visions and imagine our future\, post-nature selves. Conceived as part-stage\, part-laboratory\, ‘Echo’ combines her signature photo-realist embroideries with architectural elements\, large-scale sculpture and textile works and living mycelium fungus. Incorporating performance elements and accompanied by a soundscape\, the artist choreographs a fictional narrative around themes of flux and transformation. \n\nKlára Hosnedlová (b. 1990\, Uherské Hradiště) is a Czech artist based in Berlin whose practice examines historical perception through utopian design and architecture. Responding to specific sites\, she researches experimental projects and past futurisms\, exploring how nostalgia shapes contemporary culture. Drawing on science fiction\, technology and ecological systems\, Hosnedlová creates immersive installations with a tactile\, “futuristic archaeological” atmosphere. Part of the first post-Communist Czech generation\, she is inspired by modernist and Brutalist architecture in Central and Eastern Europe and its intersections with politics\, history and mythology.

She is the one who looks back and tells the story of the two siblings. Their arrival into a world where life was never fair. The years they spent in Mexico with their grandparents while their mother tried to make a living in Spain\, and she\, still a child\, was the one who took care of Diego. The stage in Madrid\, a city they didn’t understand and that didn’t understand them either. The first separation\, when she left for Barcelona to make her way and her brother stayed behind in the place he hated most. And her return\, carrying Diego’s ashes\, to a Mexico very different from the one she remembered. \nThis novel narrates the emotional journey of a young woman who senses the reasons behind her teenage brother’s suicide and experiences her own “Ulysses syndrome\,” where neither departure nor return is truly a destination. A story of separations and abandonments\, of longing and rage\, of loss and initiation into life\, in which Brenda Navarro tackles elusive issues such as inequality\, xenophobia\, and uprooting with enormous courage\, confirming her as one of the most powerful and daring voices in contemporary literature. Intense\, visceral\, and devastating\, Cenizas en la boca is a book that burns and poses the painful question of what life is worth living. \nBRENDA NAVARRO is one of the most critically acclaimed authors writing in Spanish.

Through her perspective\, the audience can get a glimpse into the daily life of this exceptional politician and his love and marriage\, revealing a tableau of the 20th century’s dramas—from the fall of the Monarchy and Trianon\, through the two world wars\, to communist deportation. Sarolta’s viewpoint illuminates Klebelsberg’s human character and achievements\, while her post-WWII ordeals as a widow highlight the paradoxical cruelty of communism. \nFollowing her successful drama Ilona Zrinyi\, Mária Hedry brings this tumultuous life to the stage: Klebelsberg’s figure and his era’s contradictions take center stage through Sarolta’s lonely fate. The play draws on scholarly research—including works by Gábor Ujvári\, István Bethlen\, and Ignác Romsics—alongside contemporary sources\, enriched by the author’s imagination. \nCount Kuno von Klebelsberg (1875–1932) was a defining cultural politician of interwar Hungary. As Minister of Religion and Public Education (1922–1931)\, he implemented reforms to address Trianon losses: building thousands of rural schools\, modernising universities\, promoting folk education\, and founding overseas cultural institutes (Collegium Hungaricum) for national survival. \nThe 80-minute\, one-act performance will be performed in Hungarian with English subtitles. \n\n\nCast: \n\nSarolta: Edit Majzik\nEmma\, Márta\, Hubayné\, Róza\, peasant woman: Delinke Gajdó\nSzentgyörgyi\, doctor\, German officer\, Russian officer\, Hungarian comrade: Attila Petneházy\n\nSet\, costumes: Katalin Libor\nDirector: Attila Petneházy URL:https://euniclondon.org/event/shadow-fate-theatre-performance-for-the-day-of-hungarian-culture/ LOCATION:Hungarian Cultural Centre\, 10 Maiden Lane\, London\, London\, WC2E 7NA\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Theatre & Dance ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://euniclondon.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/6e8a00321cf502becb44c65420665392.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Liszt Institute Hungarian Cultural Centre London":MAILTO:info@hungary.org.uk GEO:51.5102115;-0.1232743 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Hungarian Cultural Centre 10 Maiden Lane London London WC2E 7NA United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=10 Maiden Lane:geo:-0.1232743,51.5102115 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260120T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260120T203000 DTSTAMP:20260420T215744 CREATED:20260113T211348Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260113T211350Z UID:10005445-1768935600-1768941000@euniclondon.org SUMMARY:Peter Peri in Conversation with Dávid Fehér - Book launch and display of recent paintings DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Liszt Institute London for an evening celebrating the launch of a new monograph on Peter Peri\, published by Einspach Czapolai Fine Art. \nPeri will be in conversation with Dávid Fehér\, Director of the Central European Research Institute for Art History of the Museum of Fine Arts. Their discussion will explore Peri’s artistic practice\, key themes in his work\, and the ideas shaping his most recent projects\, offering insight into both the newly published monograph and his wider artistic trajectory. \nThe event will also feature a display of Peri’s latest paintings in the gallery\, providing a unique opportunity to experience his practice first-hand alongside the critical perspectives presented in the publication. \nCopies of the book will be available on site. All are welcome to attend\, register via Eventbrite. \n\n\nPeter Peri (b. 1971\, London) \nPeter Peri’s primary media are drawing\, sculpture\, and painting: three distinct bodies of work that are developed independently by the artist to create a complex set of interrelations. All works are specifically invested in the tension between line and volume\, figuration and abstraction\, and in the questioning of tradition and influence in Modernism. \nA graduate of Chelsea College of Art\, he made his debut at Bloomberg New Contemporaries in 2003. He has exhibited widely internationally\, including Tate Britain\, the Hayward Gallery\, and Kunsthalle Basel. Peri’s work can be found in the collections of Tate\, the Victoria & Albert Museum\, and the Museum of Fine Arts\, Budapest. Peri’s work has a personal connection to Modernism. His grandfather was Peter László Péri (1899–1967)\, a Hungarian émigré to Britain who was involved in Constructivism before turning to architecture and later in his life to Realism. \n\n\nDávid Fehér \nDávid Fehér is an art historian\, director of the Central European Research Institute for Art History of the Museum of Fine Arts\, and assistant professor at the Institute of Art History at the Eötvös Loránd University. His research covers 20th-century and contemporary art\, including Pop Art\, Photorealism\, and related movements. He has curated numerous exhibitions and has published widely in academic journals\, exhibition catalogues\, and art publications. He is a member of the Hungarian Section of the International Association of Art Critics.

It offers visitors a unique opportunity to trace how the image has transformed over two centuries—from tangible traces of light to synthetic visual worlds created by artificial intelligence. \nThe exhibition presents iconic works by Josef Sudek and Jaromír Funke\, whose photographs demonstrate how light\, composition\, and atmosphere can transform reality into poetic or constructive visual worlds. These classical approaches are complemented by historical photomontages\, double exposures\, and analogue manipulations\, showing how deeply the desire to reshape the image is established in the tradition of photography. The historical works in the exhibition are drawn from the PPF Art collection\, which plays a key role in preserving and presenting Czech photographic heritage. \nThe contemporary section of the exhibition develops this dialogue through artists working with AI and generative technologies. In her work Your Addiction Is the Message\, Barbora Trnková reveals the mechanisms of visual dependency in the digital environment and the role of technologies in shaping our perceptions. Lenka Hamošová\, in the project Troubling GAN and the series Strange Attractions\, explores both the aesthetics and limitations of neural networks\, showing how algorithms create and reproduce stereotypes or visual hallucinations. A collaborative work by Trnková and Javůrek\, Generation of Princesses\, uses generative models to critically reflect on pop-culture ideals of femininity and their digital reconstruction. The exhibition offers a visually compelling and accessible perspective on how our understanding of the image\, reality\, and the things we are willing to believe when we look\, is changing. \nOrganised by the Czech Centre with the kind support of the PPF Foundation. \nEXHIBITION OPENING\nTuesday 20 January 2026\, 6.30 – 8.30 pm\nFree entry\, REGISTER HERE: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/pixels-and-poetics-private-view-tickets-1977922480383?aff=oddtdtcreator\nEXHIBITION DATES: 20 January – 13 March 2026\nVENUES & OPENING TIMES \nVitrínka Gallery\, Czech Centre London\n30 Kensington Palace Gardens\, London\, W8 4QY\nOpening hours: Tue – Fri 10am – 5pm \nBouda Gallery\, Czech Centre London\n132 Palace Gardens Terrace\, Kensington\, London\, W8 4RT\nOpening hours: Tue – Fri 10am – 5pm \nPublic space outside of the Czech Embassy\, London\n26 Kensington Palace Gardens\, London\, W8 4RT\nAccessible 24/7 URL:https://euniclondon.org/event/pixels-and-poetics-sudek-funke-and-the-influence-of-new-technologies-on-the-development-of-photography/ LOCATION:Czech Centre\, 30 Kensington Palace Gardens \, London\, W8 4QY\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Art ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://euniclondon.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/CC_PaP_LON_1920x1080px_72.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Czech Centre":MAILTO:blues@czechcentre.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20251213T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20251213T200000 DTSTAMP:20260420T215744 CREATED:20251116T192357Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251116T192358Z UID:10005419-1765652400-1765656000@euniclondon.org SUMMARY:Her Voice: A Celebration of the Women of Classical Music DESCRIPTION:Following their sold-out performance in 2023\, the Waldstein Trio return to the Hellenic Centre with a powerful programme celebrating the often overlooked\, yet extraordinary legacy of women composers from the 19th century to the present day. \nFrom Clara Schumann to Valentina Scheldhofen Ciardelli\, this concert traces over 200 years of remarkable creativity\, showcasing the unique and compelling voices of women who composed against the grain of a male-dominated musical tradition. For too long\, their contributions were dismissed\, marginalised\, or forgotten—pushed to the periphery of concert repertoire and historical recognition. \nYet these composers\, through resilience and brilliance\, challenged the barriers set before them. Their works are filled with emotional depth\, originality\, and artistic power. This performance honours their legacy and affirms the importance of restoring women’s rightful place in the classical canon. \nJoin us in celebrating the female creative spirit—through its music\, its resilience\, and its long-overdue recognition.
