We invite you to the opening of an art exhibition by Vladimír Kiseljov "THE SOURCE", which will take place 
on Wednesday 1.st February 2023 at 19:00

Art exhibition curator: Martin Dostál

In this exhibition, the author deals with the themes of the primal source of life, immortality - and knowledge of the inner order of the world. Here we will see paintings on canvas, but also painted objects on Plexiglas, moving into the field of sculpture and scenography. The author has long been devoted to the life and work of selected composers, whose work he also writes about in his second book. However, he processes their work mainly through painting, painting performances at concerts, wall paintings, theater performances, etc.
