The Design Olomouc Festival has become a key platform for showcasing contemporary Czech design. This year, it once again proved that Olomouc can attract not only established brands but also unique artistic personalities. One such artist is sculptor Alexandra Koláčková, whose original and playful sculptures can be admired in the area outside Galerie Šantovka and Envelopa Office Center.
Organized by the EVENT&CO Association, the festival offers a wide range of exhibitions, workshops, and lectures. Its aim is to compare contemporary design with its historical roots, both through the works on display and the stories behind them. Visitors have the opportunity to see pieces from established companies, students from top art universities, and regional artists whose work reflects the unique character of Czech design.
Alexandra Koláčková is known for her colorful ceramic objects, which are both playful and functional. Her works often appear in public spaces, bringing joy and energy to their surroundings. At Design Olomouc, she presents sculptures that visitors can view anytime during the festival, directly in open-air settings. Her work, which blends art and environmental interaction, gives new meaning to the spaces it inhabits.
You can visit the Design Olomouc Festival until November 25, 2024, at various locations in Olomouc, including the Vlastivědné Museum and Cafe New One. Alexandra Koláčková's sculptures are accessible outside Galerie Šantovka and Envelopa Office Center at any time during the festival. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience design in all its forms!
