On Collecting Art – A discussion with collector Vladimír Železný and guests

The somewhat cryptic title The Goose in Kampa heralds a representative exhibition of Vladimír Železný’s collection, in which visitors will encounter artworks by the most prominent personalities of Czech modern art. The collection is curated by the Zlatá Husa Gallery which celebrates its twenty-fifth anniversary this year; thus the title of the exhibition refers to the name of the gallery. The works for the ex- hibition were personally selected by Vladimír Železný, a key figure in contemporary Czech art collecting. According to his own words, he wants to show the transformation of Czech art during a single lifetime, from Merging of Souls by Max Švabinský from 1901 to the top informel canvases by Mikuláš Medek from the mid-1960s.
