Project
Josef Pleskot: Cities
Museum Kampa 5/11 2022 – 12/2 2023
The exhibition Josef
Pleskot: Cities focuses on three specific urban settlements
where architect Josef Pleskot has completed the most
projects: Ostrava-Vítkovice, Litomyšl, and Prague. The four halls of
the Kampa Museum, however, present more than merely individual buildings
and projects; the exhibition seeks to convey Pleskot’s approach to
architecture and the work of his studio in a broader, more general context
and to contribute to addressing the issue of the social role of
architecture.
The project includes a
rich accompanying program, a debate meeting with Josef Pleskot, and many other
stimulating guests. In this respect, the exhibition is not intended to be just
a balanced retrospective but also an experimental search for the key questions
and challenges of today which are by no means limited to architecture.
curators: Norbert Schmidt and Jan Skřivánek
