The magnificent work of Alfons Mucha can finally find a worthy exhibition space right in the heart of Prague - in the new Savarin project. The architectural design for the Epic’s location has also impressed John Mucha, grandson of the famous painter. Prague thus has the unique opportunity to end the dispute over the Epic and to obtain suitable premises for Mucha’s large-format paintings.
The location of the Slav Epic in Prague has been debated since the series of paintings were handed over to the capital city in 1928. After almost 100 years, the solution is in sight. The Crestyl Investment Group has been preparing the extensive Savarin project in the area around the lower part of Wenceslas Square and Na Příkopě, Jindřišská and Panská Streets. The Group has incorporated an exhibition hall in this project free of charge to Prague for the display of the unique work by Alfons Mucha.
The exhibition hall will be 10 metres in height. It will be complemented by an entrance hall to the gallery, technical facilities, a conference room and study, a souvenir shop and a meeting point for group tours.
Alfons Mucha’s grandson, John Mucha, who likes the sensitive approach of the Savarin project to the location of the Slav Epic, promises that visitors to the exhibition of the magnificent paintings will see, in addition to the Epic, an extensive selection from the Mucha Foundation Collection. “This is the largest and most comprehensive in the world, containing many studies, pastels, drawings, oil paintings, photographs and written documents that accompanied the origin Epic.” He is convinced that the Savarin Palace fulfils his grandfather’s wishes and adds that, as soon as it becomes clear that this will indeed be the home of the Slav Epic in Prague, he will end the litigation with the capital.
The Savarin project was designed by the Thomas Heatherwick Studio, an icon of contemporary global architecture and design. The project includes the careful reconstruction of several existing historical buildings and the creation of a completely new public space with greenery, commercial areas and an open courtyard. Savarin will provide a unique combination of art, inspiration, fashion, culture, architecture and culinary experiences. The project will also connect a pedestrian zone with the surrounding streets via arcades. It will offer an area ideal for relaxation and leisure, with newly planted greenery, benches, fountains and drinking fountains. Praguers and visitors to the metropolis can also look forward to publicly accessible roof gardens and terraces, which will provide unusual views of the Prague skyline.
World-renowned artist Gordana Glass pushes the boundaries of glassmaking to new dimensions. Her works have found their way into the hands of personalities such as Queen Elizabeth II, the Norwegian royal couple, Pope Benedict XVI and, most recently, maestro Placido Domingo.
