Milan Adamčiak (1946) graduated in 1973 from the Science in Music Industry Studies at the Comenius University, Faculty of Philosophy in Bratislava. Through mid sixties he was deeply interested in new music. In 1965 during his visit at the Warsaw Autumn Adamčiak had an opportunity to take part in accompanying happenings, which opened him the door for future activities with Fluxus and John Cage production (with whom he has known personally).

Adamčiak belongs to the supreme representatives of Fluxus in Slovakia. His production is represented by three equal, at the same time overlapping activities – experimental poetry, graphic scores and music projects exceeding towards the sound objects and action art projects.

The exhibition organized by the association tranzit. sk emphasises the second and third stream of the Adamčiak’s production – introducing scores in the form of graphics and objects, recordings from music performances as well as the outcomes of cross-generational collaboration between Adamčiak and Matúš Maťátko and Zuzana Sabová during Adamčiak´s stay at the regionally influential 4D Gallery in Galanta.

Exclusively new works of Adamčiak will be presented at the exhibition produced during his 4 moths residential stay and in the interaction with the mentioned young slovak artists.
