NOTES AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Notes: Included in the compilation B-movie (edited by T. Nekvindová, S. Sobotovičová) - videoart on porno, horror, violence, bizarreness, warped sentiment, published in 2011 by the Research Centre of Academy of Fine Arts in Prague (VVP AVU) in cooperation with Divus.
Adopted text on the work: This video is a record of a performance in which each member of the Rafani art group took turns shooting a live carp with a revolver. Rafani created the video for the group's solo exhibition at the Václav Špála Gallery in Prague (2008). They exhibited together with other videos in which they conduct or accept violent acts of cruelty (painting a goat's horns black, cutting a horse's tail off, pulling of all leaves from a tree or getting slapped with spasmodic laughter).
