CZECH DESIGN FEST 25 opening ceremony
HKDI is thrilled to present the CZECH DESIGN FEST 25 opening ceremony and several Czech design-focused events as part of its annual design festival. This festival is a year-long project presented by HKDI in collaboration with the Consulate General of the Czech Republic in Hong Kong. On 15 April 2025 from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. at HKDI Design Boulevard, design enthusiasts can hear from Czech experts from a diverse range of backgrounds and enjoy a series of events that celebrate the richness of Czech design, art, traditions, history and music.
Mr Pavel Mrkus, a luminary in the realm of digital arts and design, will showcase his innovative site-specific video artwork and stunning Signal Festival video reels on the LED display wall. Mr Vladimir Broz, an accomplished artist and Mr Stefan Motika, a prominent figure in festival production, will also present their audio-visual work titled “Czechoslovak Architecture 58-89”, showcasing extraordinary buildings constructed between 1958 and 1989 and revealing the stories and immense efforts behind their realisation. In addition, you won’t want to miss the mesmerising performance by Ms Yanki Ma on the Cimbál, a stringed instrument integral to Czech music. Her performance promises to bring the vibrant sounds of Czech heritage to the festival.
These events are FREE and open to everyone! No registrations are needed. So mark your calendar and gather your friends for a day filled with vibrant Czech design and culture
