Nobody Else, Nothing Yet is a compilation of diverse writings: theoretical, essays, newspaper articles, interviews and letters, and even David’s never-before published poems and theatre plays. In the time horizon of the past thirty years we can thus follow, on the one hand, the artist’s consistent reflection on Czech art, the art business and the media, and in a broader context, on all of Czech society. On the other hand, we have the opportunity to get to know his more poetical side.

The publication is accompanied by a series of photographs recording an action by artist Jan Kadlec. The photography was created as a specific project for this book and they are a record of the action by which the artist responds to the texts published here.
