  • Must See in Prague

    Must See in Prague

    Must see in Prague Prague Castle Prague Castle is the largest castle complex in the world, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. Originally dating to the 9th century, this landmark, which surrounds St. Vitus Cathedral, bears the mark of each architectural and historical era that it has lived through. To this day, it serves as the seat of the Czech state. Prague Old Town and Jewish Quarter Despite being only a fraction of its former self, Prague’s Jewish Quarter comprises the best current complex of Jewish historical monuments in all of Europe. The smallest of Prague’s districts was walled off as a ghetto in 1096, following a pogrom against its inhabitants, who were mainly Jewish immigrants. Old Town Hall and the Astronomical Clock Arguably Prague’s most identifiable icon, the Astronomical Clock built into the façade of the Old Town Hall on Old Town Square continues to draw crowds waiting to see the hourly chiming of this amazing mechanical structure that dates to 1410. Powder Tower The Powder Tower is a one of the original medieval gates to the Old Town built by Matej Rejsek in the Gothic style in 1475. In the 18th century, it served as a gunpowder depot, giving it its current name. In the late 19th century, it was rebuilt by J. Mocker, and it remains one of Prague’s most important medieval monuments. Charles Bridge Prague’s oldest bridge, and one of its most iconic structures, is Charles Bridge, which connects Old Town with Malá Strana. Dating to 1357, it was originally called the Stone Bridge, or Prague Bridge, before being named Charles Bridge in 1870, after its founder King Charles IV.

  • Vincent Van Gogh the Starry Night

    Vincent Van Gogh the Starry Night

    Richard Thomson Vincent van Gogh The Starry Night the museum of modern art, new york The Starry Night without doubt, vincent van gogh’s painting the starry night (fig. 1) is an iconic image of modern culture. One of the beacons of The Museum of Modern Art, every day it draws thousands of visitors who want to gaze at it, be instructed about it, or be photographed in front of it. The picture has a far-flung and flexible identity in our collective musée imaginaire, whether in material form decorating a tie or T-shirt, as a visual quotation in a book cover or caricature, or as a ubiquitously understood allusion to anguish in a sentimental popular song. Starry Night belongs in the front rank of the modern cultural vernacular. This is rather a surprising status to have been achieved by a painting that was executed with neither fanfare nor much explanation in Van Gogh’s own correspondence, that on reflection the artist found did not satisfy him, and that displeased his crucial supporter and primary critic, his brother Theo. Starry Night was painted in June 1889, at a period of great complexity in Vincent’s life. Living at the asylum of Saint-Rémy in the south of France, a Dutchman in Provence, he was cut off from his country, family, and fellow artists. His isolation was enhanced by his state of health, psychologically fragile and erratic. Yet for all these taxing disadvantages, Van Gogh was determined to fulfill himself as an artist, the road that he had taken in 1880.

    SUM, CONVENT OF ST AGNES, NATIONAL GALLERY PRAGUE, PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC, 2018 Antony Gormley's passion is to ask whether a human form - as both a vessel for the body and a container for the mind - can be a contemporary subject for contemplation; questions that are essentially spiritual. Gormley speaks of "being" in its widest context, exploring the now. He works with life, making body moulds and body casts, by implication life-size, in various subtle, undramatic states, and places them in a range of settings. These locations are never random; Gormley selects them for their associations. He treats the body as a house and invites the viewer's participation. For Gormley: "How the sculptures are disposed in space is perhaps more important than what they represent." ['Vessel', Antony Gormely, Galeria Continua, San Gimignano, 2012, p.42] This thinking is relevant for the works installed at the Convent of St Agnes, founded at the beginning of the 13th century and situated at the edge of the Old Town. The Church of St Salvator, the earliest Gothic building in Prague and the oldest part of this magnificent historical space, is the perfect site for the 'Reflections' series, in which contemporary art will be seen in a context that speaks to the uniqueness of both art and architecture. The viewer is left alone to reflect. Antony Gormley's two works on paper - the woodcut REACH (2016) and the imprint FEEL (2016) - resonate with the cast iron sculpture SUM (2012), the show's central motif. "Sum" in Latin stands for "I am" in English, or "being", the title of this show.

    Burning Bush

    presents BURNING BUSH A Film by Agnieszka Holland 2013 / Czech Republic / in Czech with English subtitles / Color A Kino Lorber Release from Kino Lorber, Inc. 333 West 39 St., Suite 503 New York, NY 10018 (212) 629-6880 Publicity Contact: Rodrigo Brandão – [email protected] Matt Barry – [email protected] SHORT SYNOPSIS The three-part drama, directed by the Polish director Agnieszka Holland, is HBO Europe’s most ambitious, big-budget project to date. The film returns to a pivotal time in modern Czech history, ignored in Czech cinema until now. It begins with a reconstruction of the shocking act of a Czech university student, who in protest of the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia, set himself on fire in Prague’s Wenceslas Square on January 16, 1969, and died four days later. Through the story of the brave defense attorney Dagmar Burešová, who defended Palach’s legacy in a doomed lawsuit, the film examines the transformations taking place in Czechoslovak society after the invasion of the armies of the Warsaw Pact in August of 1968 and the installation of a hardline Communist government. It depicts the beginnings of Czech and Slovak resistance against the occupation, which reached its apex with the mass protests during Palach’s funeral. It also shows the nation’s gradual resignation under the pressure of fear and harsher persecution. LONG SYNOPSIS Part I On the 16th of January1969 on Wenceslas Square in Prague, a young student sets himself on fire in front of dozens of passers-by. Police Major Jireš (Ivan Trojan) investigates the circumstances of Palach’s actions.
