In 1921, a retrospective of Mucha’s work, featuring the first five canvases of the Slav Epic, was exhibited at the Brooklyn Museum, following a very successful showing in Chicago. This exquisite poster for the exhibition, in red, green and black inks, features a girl as symbol of the Slavic myth, holding a circle of thorns and stars signifying the past and future of the Slav people.
Hardy, rustic and rogue, this determined skier brings color, strength and fortitude to the placid hamlet of Velké Karlovice, a town in the middle of the Czech Republic’s prime winter sports areas.
This year, I was invited to Prague Pride as a special guest, to speak at two of their events. I had no idea that I had so many fans in the Czech Republic. It was a great step for asexuality visibility and representation at their festival. I’ll forever cherish the experience! Thanks to the organisers for having me, and to all of the people who made me feel so welcome!
