House of Art České Budějovice

The beginning of the “new” history of the Gallery of Contemporary Art and Architecture – House of Arts of the city of České Budějovice (Galerie současného umění a architektury) began in 1998, when Michal Škoda stepped to its helm as Chief Curator. The Gallery (run by the statutory city of České Budějovice) prepares exhibitions of the Czech Republic’s most interesting artists every year as well as of prominent authors from abroad. Such artists, for the most part, are presenting their works for the first time not only in our country but in Eastern Europe in general. Space is also provided for interesting young artists. The gallery is not a commercial or collector’s venue.
