The social elite has been meeting at Cafe Louvre<\/strong> since its grand opening in 1902. Members of the Sursum Art Association met here, students Max Brod and Franz Kafka came here for coffee, the general meeting of the Czechoslovak PEN Club headed by Karel \u010capek and President of the Republic Tom\u00e1\u0161 Garrigue Masaryk was held here, and in the evenings, Albert’s regular guests were Tuesday guests. The genius loci of this unique meeting place was provided by the young glass artist Franti\u0161ek Jungvirt in his still lifes. He created the concept for the 30th anniversary of the fight for freedom and democracy, whose monument is located near Caf\u00e9 Louvre, and as a tribute to places that have overcome various vagaries of Czech history. Jungvirt’s author’s collections are available at frantisekjungvirt.com and in selected galleries. You can then find them directly in the caf\u00e9 from December 9 to 15 as part of the December Czech Design Week show. The project was created with this support.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n text for winter ELLE Decoration<\/a>, Eva Slune\u010dkov\u00e1<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Projekct supported by Czech Design Week<\/a>, Cafe Louvre <\/a><\/strong>and Moser<\/a><\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Video by Vi\u0165a Bilanyuk.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Photos by Katar\u00edna Huda\u010dinov\u00e1 a Karol\u00edna Matu\u0161kov\u00e1.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Represented collections:<\/p>\n LENTIL<\/a>, GARDEN BASIC<\/a>, FLEUR WHITE<\/a>, FLEUR BLACK<\/a>, MERANO POP<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n
