Glittering Crystal / Bohumil Kubišta and Czech Art 1905–2013

visual identity / communication campaign / monograph / catalogue / print materials / interior design

This prestigious exhibition titled Glittering Crystal / Bohumil Kubišta and Czech Art 1905‒2013 was on display at the Ostrava Gallery of Fine Arts from October 2014 to January 2015. The exhibition offered a chance to see not only the pioneering work of Bohumil Kubišta, but also the work of his colleagues, contemporaries and followers. This unique exhibition offered an extraordinary opportunity to see works from private collections that are generally inaccessible, as well as works from more than 36 galleries and public institutions across Europe.

The core of the visual communication for the exhibition is Kubišta's paintings; especially his famous self-portrait. It is complemented by distinctive typography, which refers to cubism with its shape. Design of printed materials, advertising, promotional materials and graphics in the exhibition area were prepared for the exhibition. The graphic design and typesetting of the extensive monograph and exhibition catalogue were also created.

The exhibition was the most visited event in the Ostrava Gallery of Fine Arts in 2014.

Role in the project: author, creative director, design supervisor, graphic designer.
