We invite you to the opening of the exhibition Miquel Barceló and the Written Worlds, which will take place as part of the Festival of Arts, Literature & Learning.
The first-ever presentation in the Czech Republic of globally acclaimed Spanish artist Miquel Barceló focuses on his long-standing relationship with literature. This relation has been a recurring subject at different points in his career, which spans more than four decades and which will be explored through paintings, ceramics, watercolours, bronzes, prints, and books.

Radka Bodzewicz: FAUST
Radka Bodzewicz has long drawn inspiration from literary sources – from poetry, prose, and even scholarly or philosophical texts. The FAUST exhibition offers an artistic reflection on another iconic literary work, Goethe’s Faust.
ANDROS
The ANDROS group exhibition explores artistic depictions of the male body within the broader regional context, presenting works by artists from Germany, Austria, and the Visegrad countries alongside those of Czech artists.
Argus & Medusa: On Hope in Dark Times
The Argus & Medusa exhibition shows how the work The Raft of the Medusa (1818–1819) by the French artist Théodore Géricault sparks the imagination of contemporary visual artists, thus reflecting the reality of today’s world. A moment between hope and despair.
Point of View 4: Resilience
The fourth instalment of the long-term project Point of View once again presents an exhibition and a classroom in one. The artistic approaches here open up a space to slow down and pay attention – a space for shared experience. They allow us to linger with uncertainty, to think and feel at the same time, and to seek strength in fragility.
Anna Polanská & Pavla Vachunová: Before the Stone Blooms
The exhibition Before the Stone Blooms at the DOX by Qubus design shop brings together the work of Anna Polanská and Pavla Vachunová, two artists whose paths converge in their intuitive relationship with materials, craftsmanship and the landscape.
David Tibet: Hallucinate, Children
An exhibition showcasing the visual work spanning the entire career of one of the most prominent figures in the esoteric and experimental underground scene of recent decades, David Tibet.
Field of Memory
A multimedia exhibition produced by the Kyiv-based Dakh Theatre uncovers the tragedy of Ukrainian children separated from their homes and families during the ongoing war against the Russian aggressors. It is part of the Prague Crossroads Festival.
