Adéla Svobodová, Tomáš Svoboda

Adéla Svobodová, an artist and a graphic designer has been recently well-known especially for her successful promotional campaigns for Fresh Film Fest. Together with her older brother Tomáš Svoboda, she is interested in examining texts out of an aesthetical and conceptual point of view. Whereas Adéla concentrates on the transformation of  conceptual reflection into the typography, Tomáš uses the text puristically to a visual representation of an experienced picture.

We are presenting the monumental commission for the Iranian Shah in Teheran year 1977. Before the contract was unexpectedly terminated a year later due to the coup in Iran, Czechoslovakia managed to make great profit and the then Prime Minister Lubomír Štrougal acknowledged the economic contribution of Art Centrum, which was transferred in 1977 under the Federal Ministry of Foreign Trade and was thus saved from being closed down.
Reflecting Gábor Palotai's expanded understanding of graphic design, in his consistently formulated oeuvre, besides conventional formats and media, other, hardly classifiable or less common genres are present; such as conceptual photography, graphic design novel, printed textiles, non-narrative digital motion pictures or even public plaques.
