At the time the gallery was founded, there was no established tradition<\/strong> of commercial galleries in the Czech Republic presenting an international program and supporting the creation and exhibition of new contemporary art<\/strong> in a private gallery setting, or who actively represented and promoted the artists\u2019 pieces abroad.<\/p>\n

There were also very few Czech artists<\/strong> with any international recognition and no local commercial platform to nurture the younger generation of artists. The gallery\u2019s aim is to maintain a renowned art gallery with a high-quality international program<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
