Guided tour of the exhibition

Guided tour of the exhibition Hier ruht begraben / Here he rests in a room with the authors of the project Jan Čumlivksi and Filip Kraus and the curator Anna Habánová.

The exhibition presents, in the form of a spatial installation, hundreds of frottages taken from tombstones in defunct and existing cemeteries of the former Sudetenland. Students and heads of the UMPRUM writing and typography studio documented selected cemeteries around Jablonec nad Nisou and other places in Bohemia. The purpose of this performative activity was primarily to revive and preserve the memory of individual, mostly unknown persons. The exhibition was created in cooperation with UMPRUM in Prague.
