Do we live humanly?
Do we live humanly? This is the title of the exhibition with the subtitle Union of Czechoslovak Works 1914–1948, Movement for Housing Reform, which is currently taking place at the Museum of Applied Arts in Prague. For the first time ever, it represents the thirty-year-long existence of the Association of Czechoslovak Works, which brought together the leading figures of Czechoslovak design (Pavel Janák, František Kysela, V.H. Brunner and others), schools, museums with craftsmen, factories (e.g. Sochor, UP závody) and cooperatives (e.g. Beautiful room, Artěl). The activities of the association were very broad, its members prepared exhibitions of their members at home and abroad, held competitions, awarded scholarships to students for stays in production enterprises, established branches in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
Occupation of Czechoslovakia in poster
There is a lot of photographic and even radio material associated with the occupation of the Czechoslovak Republic in the domestic archives. You can see what the posters produced by the citizens themselves, which expressed a negative attitude towards the invasion of the Warsaw Pact troops, looked like in the archives of the Czechoslovak Documentation Center.
