About event
The lecture will focus on the admiration for the "pure forms" of the vase in the currents of the European avant-garde, especially in cubism and later in purism. The vase, as a universal archetype, represented a "typical object" for the avant-garde, which acquired an ideal form through centuries of development, cannot be perfected in principle and is suitable for standardized production.
Lecturer: PhDr. Radim Vondráček, Ph.D.
