“Sometimes we need to freely grasp the would without having to think of duties, necessities, and the weight of being.”
George Bataille
The Křehký Gallery presents a very personal view of contemporary design, the home, and the world of objects by means of exhibitions and its own collection of objects. The curatorial selection by Jana Zielinski and Jiří Macek includes primarily limited editions, designer originals, experimental projects, prototypes, and lot-produced objects in an exclusive representation that brings originality, character, and uniqueness into our environment. Thus, the Křehký limited edition gives Czech and foreign designers an opportunity and a free hand to implement their projects, which express the perception of the world of objects by the designers themselves thanks to an unrestricted creative process and implementation. This process, on the other hand, signifies a huge experience for the individual manufacturers, who in most cases must cope with the demands of high quality and technology that are not applied in standard production.
The gallery was established on the basis of the successful Křehký exhibition project from 2007, which presented the most powerful moments from the field of contemporary Czech glass and porcelain design in a very emotional selection. The exhibition and the first designer pieces from the Křehký collection were originally presented as part of Designblok ’07 event in the form of an imaginary spherical landscape (designed by Maxim Velčovský). The Křehký Collection won the Editors Award at the ICFF trade fair in New York; the Křehký by Designblok Prague was nominated for the Grand Prix at 100% Design Tokyo. Later, the Křehký collection represented the Czech Republic at many different locations all over the world.
