Have you dreamed about mountains?

Mountains are often connected with different myths, legends and mythological creatures. Mountains are difficult to access and often inhospitable and that is why they were the last places to be settled. Among those who decided to live in the mountains were many adventures and weirdoes whose odd and puzzling existence contributed to the birth of many legends. Mountains – both feared and admired – have kept alive people´s dreams and desires for centuries. Everyone who grew up in the mountains will miss their clear horizon all their life.

Have you dreamed about mountains?
The mini-symposium “Bauhaus and Functionalism” examines the reception and interpretation of the emergence of Functionalism in Czechoslovakia in the interwar period and connections with Bauhaus in Germany. The leading theorist of the modernist avant-garde Karel Teige and his teaching at the Bauhaus are ideal examples of networking between these countries.
