To explore its various landscapes, social environments accommodated by different social and cultural classes. And above all, its aesthetics, various atmospheres, spirits - genius loci of its places. We will also think about future locations for your potentional film projects.

Descreet Charm of Prague: Location Reading

Lets go with us to explore the discreet charm of Prague!

We will see and discuses different city landscapes usually hidden not only to the foreigners, but also to the Prague dwellers themselves. We will explore different time levels of the city, which have grown in its different historical periods. We will start near to city centre and move to its periphery in the order to end in the wilderness of countryside. We will see how the people used to leave there in the past and how they do it today.

And - above all - I hope, we will find some locations and inspirations for you perspective film projects. (So take your photo camera with yourself!)

Poznámka:

Kouknete na EN verzi.

Take with yourself: walking boots, umbrella, water and small snack (but we will go for a lunch to a pub), rather tourist dress appropriate to the changing autumn weather, pen and paper for your notes, and photo camera...

Program:

1) City model and the lifestyle of particular historical period: the example of interwar modernism of the city quarter of Podolí.

2) Social life on the river of Vltava. Sport as an aesthetics. (Yacht clubs, sports and other river activities.)

3) River ferry as a example of social space (we will take a ferry to the opposite bank of river and do a short exercise mapping a social life. How do people accommodate an unknown space?).

4) City and its terrain vague. Average European city contains almost 50%(!) of „empty places“: what about their social life? (River island Císařská louka)

5) Industrialism of the 19th century and its legacy. Beauty of industrial architecture (Smíchov).

6) Pub as a meeting point of Czech local communities (Having a lunch in a local pub, we will do a short exercise on its social life and aesthetics.

7) City and wilderness. City within countryside and wilderness within city. Nature and its political aesthetics. (Prokopské údolí).

8) The story of city periphery in the 20th century. From countryside to a village within city (Hlubočepy)

9) Communist panel block suburbs. Communist model of modernity and its legacy (Nové Butovice).

10) City as a transport web and transport as a social event. Why buses, trams a metro stations have different passengers and different atmospheres? (On our way back to the centre...)
