During the guided tour of the exhibition Štědrý Diviš, we’ll walk through the gallery with both artists and hear the stories behind each work. 

Stanislav Diviš is a legend of the Czech art scene and co-founder of the iconic art group Tvrdohlaví. In the 1980s, he helped launch the semi-legal “Konfrontace” exhibitions and later led the painting studio at Prague’s UMPRUM for many years. In addition to painting, you may also know him as the singer and frontman of the band Krásné nové stroje.

Karel Štědrý is a prominent representative of the younger generation who studied in Diviš’s studio at UMPRUM and co-founded the art group OBR. He has been exhibiting for an impressive 20 years and shares a passion for geometry with Stanislav Diviš. Karel Štědrý’s artistic language was shaped by street art, digital painting, and the legendary Merkur construction sets.
