A very prominent figure on the Czech cultural scene and beyond. Fine arts, music, sculpture, poetry, architecture, design, and much more – this is the valuable interdisciplinarity at a high level that characterizes Milan Knížák. Former rector of the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague and long-time director of the National Gallery in Prague. Today, Milan Knížák will be given space as a composer – a truly exceptional composer at that.
