We also invite you to an afterparty at Bike Jesus on Štvanice Island starting at 9 p.m. On Thursday, July 21 at 6.00 p.m., the opening continues in the second location of the biennale—the General University Hospital in Prague in the former laundry room. After the opening and a curatorial guided tour in English, a discussion between the curators and the artists will follow in the nearby Center for Architecture and Metropolitan Planning (CAMP). On Friday, July 22 at 6.00 p.m., we invite you to the Šaloun Studio for the opening of the installation by Robert Gabris & Luboš Kotlár of the collective i pack*.
