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.

In her project DELTA Plan, Daniela Ponomarevová constructs and subsequently deconstructs a post-apocalyptic story responding to the current state of civilization.

The author opens up this fictional future scenario through a series of objects installed in the immersive environment of a supposed laboratory and a text-and-image document.
