Mucha Foundation Art Museum: Art Nouveau and Utopia

Discover the world of Alfons Mucha – the artist who made the Czech Republic famous all over the world. Mucha Foundation Art Museum , the only official museum dedicated to the work of Alfons Mucha (1860–1939), invites you to an unforgettable visit. As the only museum in the world, it is managed directly by the Mucha family and the Mucha Foundation. The exhibition offers an authentic and unique insight into the life of one of the most renowned Czech artists of all time – a leading figure of Art Nouveau and a visionary thinker whose utopian ideals culminated in the monumental Slav Epic. The exhibition presents more than eighty works from the private collection of the Mucha family – including exhibits that have never been publicly displayed before. Visitors will pass through four thematic sections that guide them through Mucha’s entire life: Mucha and his homeland “Le style Mucha” and Art Nouveau Mucha the visionary The Slav Epic Paintings, posters, drawings, books and photographs – complemented by digital projections – will draw you into the story from Mucha’s Moravian roots through his Paris triumph to the role of philosopher-artist, who captured his vision of the future on the monumental canvases of the Slav Epic.
