In addition to the complete series of hand-colored and cut-out graphics that accompanied the last edition of Máj by Karel Hynk Mácha, the exhibition will also feature one unique work - the large-format graphic Mother's Love . This was the model for the 12-meter work, which has been in the center of London since last autumn, commemorating the former royal maternity hospital. Thematically related to it is also a complete set of graphics dedicated to motherhood, which will complement the exhibition.
Míla Fürstová is an internationally acclaimed graphic artist and painter. She was born in Pelhřimov, grew up in Hradec Králové, but has been living and creating in Great Britain for a long time. In 2014, she designed the wings for the band Coldplay on the cover of their album Ghost Stories. The collaboration with Coldplay and the now famous Wings brought attention to her work on a global scale. In 2020, she created illustrations for Erben's Bouquet , a year later she illustrated Božena Němcová's Grandma , and last year she accompanied the new edition of Máchov Máj with her graphics. Her work is represented in many public and private collections around the world.
A guided tour of the exhibition combined with a screening of the video mapping Landscape of Dreams, created by Anežka Hlinková based on the works of Míla Fürstová, will take place on 5/24 from 8:30 p.m.
