The exhibition Treasures of Chaos at the Prostora Gallery will present the domestic collection of Veronika Šrek Bromová and Ivan Šrek. The opening will take place on Wednesday, November 12, 2025.

The Prostora Gallery will present a private collection belonging to intermedia artist Veronika Šrek Bromová and artistic carpenter Ivan Šrek. The exhibition opening will take place on Wednesday, November 12, at 6 p.m. The title Treasures of Chaos reflects the world of the authors, their relationships, memories and resonances with friends, family, children, former partners, and students. It presents donated, forgotten, and newly added artworks. The exhibition, which runs until December 17, will also include guided tours.

"I didn't intend to collect art, but it found me on my journey and gradually enveloped me. I grew up with it, and it was impossible to get rid of it, but why would I want to shake off the layers of life that connect me to so many people and things through art? I actually bought very few of the pieces in the collection. Some come from my travels, some I exchanged, and some I received as gifts. My husband also acquired paintings in exchange for his craftsmanship. Some works remained with us after exhibitions at the Kabinet Chaos Gallery, others were forgotten by students at school and, despite reminders, were never picked up. For the occasion of this exhibition, I also asked for a few new artworks myself." Veronika Šrek Bromová

Prostora is a new non-profit project led by architect Marcela Steinbachová, the founder of the Skupina Studio, Kruh Association, and the Director of its activities (its lecture series on architecture, the Architecture Day festival, and the Film and Architecture festival, as well as publication releases). Prostora is located on the 1st floor above Náměstí Míru Square, in the former telephone exchange building at Blanická Street 9. The gallery's name is derived from the more commonly used synonym for the word 'space,' but it defines a more delimited, bounded environment, in this case, an exhibition space.

"The space came about by chance. I have acquired an incredible industrial space in the city centre and we are dedicating a part of it to culture. The character of the interior is left over from the building's previous use as a telephone switchboard. The imperfections of the space is taken as an advantage. Cracked uneven floors, plastered openings, holes and splinters are part of the body of the gallery; its asset. The curatorial cycle will present important contemporary Czech artists in a different way and should show the breadth of these personalities."- Marcela Steinbach explains the space will be used for gallery purposes.
