On Tuesday, January 30, 2018, at 6:00 PM in the lecture hall of the Museum of Applied Arts in Prague, Vendula Hnídková will speak, who is a leading expert on socialist realism in Czech architecture.
Socialist realism is a style that was imported into Czechoslovakia from Moscow along with the totalitarian regime that gave it artistic expression. The architecture of socialist realism was supposed to draw from local traditions and define the backdrop of socialist society through them. In Czechoslovakia during the 1950s, no monument of this state-dictated style was created, but a number of residential complexes emerged that became the main carrier of socialist realism. The admission fee is 50 CZK.
