The travelling exhibition includes realised and unrealised projects whose models were created in the RT+Q Architects studio by interns before they joined the studio. The exhibition will be complemented by a series of photographs by Petr Vorlík, Petr Šmídek, Tomáš Klanc, Nina Bartošová and Martin Hora from their private trips to Le Corbusier's buildings. There will also be drawings by students who regularly take part in workshops at the Dominican monastery of La Tourette in France as part of the ZAN Brožová, Hůrka, Šrámek studio training.
As part of the accompanying programme, visitors can look forward to a guided tour of the exhibition with the architectural historian Rostislav Švácha and two lecture evenings that will highlight the international environment of the architect's Paris studio, the legacy of his work in Slovak and Czech architecture, and the role of women and especially Jane Drew in the vicinity of Le Corbusier. The FA library will feature an extensive collection of publications from the Faculty's collections and the NTK Le Corbusier - Plans and ARTSTOR digital archive with over 38,000 items of notes, sketches, drawings and photographs.
The vernissage will take place on 18 April 2023 at 18.00 in the atrium of the FA CTU in the presence of representatives of the RT+Q Architects studio and Czech curators Petr Vorlik, Michaela Brožová, Lucie Mlynčeková, Gabriela Nováková and Miroslav Pavel. The exhibition will run until 28 April 2023. The event is organised by the Institute of Theory and History of Architecture in cooperation with the Institute of Design III and the Institute of Art.
