The Yearbook Czech Architecture 2009-2010 will be published on April 20

The aim of the Yearbook of Czech Architecture is to regularly report on the current situation and development of the field not only to professionals but primarily to the general public, and to provide stimuli for inspiration and public discussion. For international readers, the yearbook serves as a brief overview of the contemporary Czech architectural scene. The selection of buildings for the representative bilingual publication is carried out by a prominent figure from the works offered by invited architects.
The book consists of three chapters. The first, Buildings presents 33 selected and typologically diverse objects. In the chapter Opinion art historian Jiří Ševčík talks with architect and state award laureate Alena Šrámková. The third chapter Factography provides an overview of events in architecture (selected actions commented on by Adam Gebrian), statistical summaries (construction, residential development, real estate), awards for selected personalities (V. Rudiš, V. H. Pardyl) for lifetime achievements, and results of selected national competitions and project competitions co-organized by the Czech Chamber of Architects. The factographic chapter concludes with a list of literature published in the past period (selected titles recommended by Klára Benešovská).
