Adam Gebrian / The second life

For centuries, there has been a continuing dialogue taking place between the buildings from different periods in our country. Although different, these buildings have not been in striking contrasts but rather formed quite homogenous unity. A few years after 1989, it seemed that new buildings are preferable, and they are much more important than conversions, reconstructions and adaptations of the existing ones. But in last few years, because of many reasons, it seems that creative way how to use what we already have, is back on track. My lecture will focus on these examples.

The story of one way of one man who is more attentive to living

His realizations can be found in the Czech Republic as well as abroad. In his work he develops his own alternative way of the modern conception of architecture, he uses unusual sources of inspiration and works with pictures and principles of today’s world. His experimental work was presented in the exhibition VIZE 1997. A short documentary called White Crows (Bílé vrány) was made about him for the Czech TV. He lectures; was a visiting teacher at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague (VŠUP). He also writes and his work, presented in professional as well as public media, was awarded many times and is part of the collections of the National Gallery in Prague. Recently, he has been trying to work up a personal system that combines architecture, construction, drumming, and martial arts.


Marcela Steinbachová / On Architecture and With Architecture

Adam Gebrian, The second life

Po dlouhá staletí se na našem území odehrával dialog mezi stavbami z odlišných období, které od sebe nebyly striktně odděleny, ale tvořily jeden celek. Pár let po roce 1989 se zdálo, že novostavby mají přednost, jsou mnohem důležitější než konverze, rekonstrukce a adaptace, ale posledních několik let naopak ukazuje, že už tomu tak naštěstí není. Právě na tyto ukázky dialogů mezi novým a již existujícím bude zaměřena moje přednáška.
