The Kunsthalle Praha Collection: 50 Highlights 

Through fifty selected works of art, this book presents the first closer look at the collection of Kunsthalle Praha. The introductory editorial outlines the goals of Kunsthalle Praha’s collecting activities, which are focused primarily on Czech art from the early twentieth century to the present day within the broader Central European context. On the subsequent pages, readers are given the chance to familiarize themselves with the various works through short texts and accompanying images. The authors of these texts include not only art historians and curators, but also artists, philosophers, architects, a historian, a theater director, and a writer. Their essays naturally offer a diverse range of interpretations showing that art has the capacity to speak to us about a variety of subjects while providing space for us to formulate our own individual viewpoints.
