CRYSTAL GARDEN
The biggest ever exhibition of Jiří Pačinek and Pačinek Glass!
29. 11. 2024 - 2. 2. 2025
Botanical Garden of the capital city Prague Botanical Garden will open a unique exhibition of art glass on 29 November. The winter exposition will be lit up by strange flowers, plants and animals that have grown under the hands of glassmaker Jiří Pačinek and his colleagues from Pačinek Glass. During the day, visitors will enjoy the magic of glass illuminated by sunlight, and during evening tours they will witness a fantastic play of lights and music. The evening atmosphere can be enjoyed from Thursday to Sunday from 5 pm to 9 pm. The show takes place at the time of Advent and Christmas, and so the tallest illuminated tree and crystal nativity will be part of the exhibition. The Crystal Garden will also be open during the Christmas holidays and will run until February 2.
"Cooperation with the Prague Botanical Garden is the first event for us in a natural environment, and on such a large scale. Interested visitors can also see beautiful fantastic flowers in the garden at our glassworks, however, the expositions of the Botanical Garden will feature new unique installations that we have created specifically for the Crystal Garden exhibition. The Advent season is about a different, possibly more peaceful and magical atmosphere, so I would like to invite everyone to the Crystal Garden, which, in combination with light and music, will hopefully set a nice mood and bring inspiration," says artistic glassmaker Jiří Pačinek.
