Make a__place: Tomáš Popadič

Why does art in public spaces require courage, and how can visionary architecture be connected with human stories?

In the latest episode of our podcast, we welcomed Tomáš Popadič, Chief Architect at Penta Real Estate. Together, we took a look behind the scenes of projects like Prague’s Masaryčka—designed by the renowned Zaha Hadid Architects and discussed the finishing touches of its interiors, including the fascinating Waves of Mind art work.

We also addressed PENTA ART platform and how was the monument to General Karel Kutlvašr by Ondřej Tichý created at the former Nusle Brewery, or Dušan Zahoranský’s Courage sculpture at Nová Waltrovka? What goes into selecting and installing these artworks? How does the public respond to them? And where does Penta  Art plan to make space for art next?
