On the occasion of announcing the first year of Věra Jirousová Award for Young and Established Art Critics we are opening an interim Věra Jirousová Studio, thus enabling visitors to have a glimpse into the archives of this exceptional art critic, poet and art historian, and, moreover, offering a number of interesting encounters.
