Vladimír's bookstore Serius and the civic association PLAC cordially invite you to the 35th lecture in the series "Printed Architecture". This time, on Friday, November 11, 2016, at 6:30 PM in Jablonec, we will welcome architectural historian Richard Biegel, who will present the book Baroque Architecture in Bohemia.

A collective of art historians from Charles University and the Czech Academy of Sciences brings a comprehensive view of the story of baroque construction in Bohemia and summarizes the results of previous research into a generously conceived monograph. The authors focus not only on the works of top architects such as Jan Blažej Santini-Aichel or Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer, but also on the creations of less-known regional creators who have not received proper attention until now. The interpretation is set against the broader cultural and societal contexts of the 17th and 18th centuries. The publication is equipped with rich visual material, including reproductions of period plans, floor layouts of individual buildings, and above all, excellent photographs by Vladimír Uher and Martin Micka.

PhDr. Richard Biegel, Ph.D. (*1975) studied art history at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University in Prague, and completed study stays in Paris, Vienna, and Rome.
