NO DEMOLITIONS! FORMS OF BRUTALISM IN PRAGUE
The architectural solution of the exhibition is based on a minimal intervention in the exhibition space of the Trade Fair Palace. Most of the exhibited original plans, perspectives and photographs are installed in subtle glass and metal showcases, which allow installing various types of originals. The showcases are placed in a grid that unifies the fragmented space of the exhibition. This system is complemented by plinth solitaires with statues, a space with period furniture, casually installed showcases anchored to the columns. The key lighting moment of the entire installation is the typographically processed translucent sheets, covering the windows and creating a dimmed diffused light. The exhibition starts with an information panel with period photographs of architecture from the period of sixties to eighties in the form of illusory architecture with reference to period "achievement exhibition”. The entire exhibition space is treated with a consistent typographic information solution, covering various surfaces in the space and unifying the overall installation in color so that it is prescribed throughout the Small Hall of the Trade Fair Palace.
