Modern and Contemporary Art

The most comprehensive exhibition from the collection of Czech art of the 20th century is to be found on the third floor of the Prazak Palace. Its title, The Fire of Prometheus was inspired by one of crucial works of modern Czech art owned by the gallery, Prometheus by Antonin Prochazka. The Moravian Gallery collection amply documents the period in which the founding generation of Czech modernism worked, and the inter-war avant-garde.
