Description was written before the event

The exhibition presents a dialogue between the painting and sculpture of brothers Joža and Franta Uprka, who captured the transformation of rural life at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Their inspiration came from Moravian Slovácko and its cultural environment.
