On Thursday, November 28, 2019, at 18:30, a book launch of Stempel-Tesař-Šlapal: Family Houses will take place at the Jaroslav Fragner Gallery. The launch will include an exhibition of paintings created at the Cultural Community Center ART in Letná.
The work of architects Ján Stempel and Jan Jakub Tesař has become synonymous with quality that lies in the harmony of pure forms and meticulously developed internal layouts. The book presents more than two dozen family houses through the images of renowned architectural photographer Filip Šlapal. They are shown not only in exteriors and interiors, but we also observe how they are integrated into the site or surrounding nature. Each has its own story, each is an original. According to Petr Volf, the author of the introductory essay, houses by these architects are the materialized portraits of their investors.
