Who Is the National Gallery Open To?

The third debate in the series Jakou Národní galerii potřebujeme? will examine the National Gallery's relationship with its current and potential audiences. It will consider who visits the gallery, which groups it reaches, and which social or institutional barriers can affect access.

The discussion will address how cultural institutions communicate with the public and respond to changing visitor expectations: language, exhibition, educational and public programmes, participation, care and audience work. It will also look at trust, representation and the social relevance of national cultural institutions.

Matěj Skalický will moderate. Guests are Oldřich Bystřický, Tomáš Klička, Magdalena Müllerová and Michal Stehlík.

The series of three round tables examines the role of the National Gallery Prague as a public cultural institution, its exhibition practice, collections and relationship with audiences.
