CRAZY MIXES & SCATCHES LIVE
A “Relax Zone” project
will open up as a part of the Mystic Sk8 Cup 2002.
Relax Zone is an area for both active
and passive leisure time activities, a relaxation zone for
the riders as well as for the visitors.
An open-air gallery an oasis of calmness
in the middle of the rush of everyday urban living is more
than any visitor would dare to think. Everyone will find a
perfect place for relaxation, set in the pleasant environment
of Stvanice Island, with faultless service throughout the
day and night. The idea behind Relax Zone is to provide contest
visitors with supplementary activities, a relaxation at a
6-metre long pool – side party Bar. The public will familiarise
itself with the “new” sports, new ways of spending their time
off work, alternative culture and arts “on the edge” as such.
Up to 30 international and local artists
will display their work at “Sub Kultura” an exhibition in
the open-air gallery throughout the three days of the contest
(for more information on Sub Kultura please see separate leaflet).
The visitors can witness a 16 - metre long wall transform
into colorful creative comumnication from the leading grafitti
artists in Czech Republic and Europe.
Other interesting features of Relax Zone
include – an Internet Cafe, vintage shooting gallery, palm
trees and other exotic plants, food stalls, fruit coctails
and Bols Bar serving exotic cocktails, Red Bull bars and LS
lounge. Top international DJs, including Freddy Jay (France),
will be serving delicacies for dancing and listening in the
Relax Zone.
Mystic Skate Party VIII will top-up
the three-day event.

Kultura is an exhibition of the art and design directly
involved and surrounding the skateboarding, graffiti,
and hip hop urban sub-cultures. Although very individual,
theses three sub-cultures have much in common and in
many cases overlap. In their original form they are
urban activities performed and pursued with similar
motives. Sub Kultura will represent the art and design
that documents these sub-cultures. Although urban culture
is one of the most up to date subjects nowadays, we
find it especially interesting to have such a show in
Prague, a city who has always been a cultural mecca
and meeting point between “East” and “West”. Sub Kultura
will also create and provide interactions between different
countries, “scenes”, and individuals.
The exhibition will consist of art and design in the
following media: photography, video, film, collage,
painting, graphic design, illustration, graffiti, product
design, and actual product. To better display graffiti,
a Jam will take place at the site of the World Cup Skateboarding
Mystic Sk8 Cup 2002 during the event for three days.
Other jams and performances will take place throughout
the show at various locations in Prague. The main body
of the show will be exhibited at the WCSMSC 2002 event
as well as in Gallery NO. D in the center of Prague
for two weeks in August.
The majority of the artists involved in Sub Kultura
are directly involved with either skateboarding, graffiti,
or hip hop and in some cases more than one or all three.
The fact that the artists are all involved in their
respective areas and are not just random observers and
reporters insures a genuine documentation and examination
of the art and design in their respective sub-cultures
and of the sub-cultures themselves.
An extensive catalog will be made to document the exhibition.
A video documenting the entire exhibition and artists
work will be released after the event.
