František Bílek’s Chýnov Visions long-term exhibition 11. 5. 2021 – 31. 10. 2021
Curator: Hana Larvová
This exhibition presents the extraordinary Art Deco and Symbolist work of the artist, who built a base for his activities in his native town, Chýnov u Tábora, in the form of an individualistic family house with a studio. The architecture of the house, built by František Bílek in 1898 with raw brickwork and contemporary “folk” wooden elements and wood carvings, refers to the traditional Chýnov architecture. The representative selection of works represents the artist mainly as a sculptor, and also includes some samples of original furniture sets designed by Bílek for his daughter Berta and his son František Jaromír.
