The Digital Archive of Bludný kámen was created in 2025 as one of the projects marking the 30th anniversary of the organization. The aim of the project XXXBK – archiving, de-archiving, re-archiving was to make thirty years of the activities of Bludný kámen accessible through an open online archive. We are gradually sorting, digitizing and publishing materials from exhibitions, concerts, lectures and other events organized by the association from 1995 to the present. In 2025 we reopened dozens of binders containing photographs, newspaper clippings, promotional materials, administrative documents, as well as videotapes and audio recordings. These materials were sorted, partly digitized and made available online. Visitors can browse the history of Bludný kámen’s activities by year, type of event, names of artists or titles of events. The project aims to capture and preserve the memory of the independent cultural scene and make it accessible to the public, researchers and anyone interested in contemporary art and its history.
The archive is continuously updated and expanded. We are gradually uploading additional materials, documents and records from the activities of Bludný kámen. New entries will continue to be added to the database even after the initial processing of the archive has been completed.
