Exhibition date: September 2020 – September 2021
To pay tribute to the legendary artist Jan Fišar (1933 – 2010): on the tenth anniversary of his death we are exhibiting the last available sculptures on our top floor. In this retrospective exhibition, you can see his first glass sculpture „Head“ from 1967 and his last work „Predator“ he created in 2010. Jan Fišar grew up in Prague, where he studied sculpture under Prof. Wágner. In 1966, the prominent glass artists Professor Stanislav Libenský and his wife Jaroslava Brychtová offered Jan Fišar the chance to collaborate on their project for the 1967 World Exposition in Montreal. This is how he first encountered glass art, little suspecting that this material would determine his entire future. He created glass sculptures that stand completely independently for themselves and that cannot be classified into the current movements of glass art.
