Experiment se šťastným koncem. Nejen o Spadu meteoritů a o spolupráci Stanislava Libenského a Jaroslavy Brychtové s Karlem Hubáčkem pro interiér hotelu a televizního vysílače na Ještědu
Palata, Oldřich
The study contemplates an unknown variant of the artistic concept of the outer shell of the load-bearing concrete cylinder in the interior of the hotel and TV transmitter on Ještěd, and at the same time explains why the author of the building, Karel Hubáček, chose the glass artists Stanislav Libenský and Jaroslava Brychtová to collaborate on this task. Photographs, a painting model and a model made of concrete and glass prove that the original creative solution, in which the architect Hubáček also participated as an author, was too radical for its time, and therefore S. Libenský and J. Brychtová independently prepared a new design. With use of other archival photos, the study shows the complex creative journey of this author pair in the realization of the new version from the source of inspiration, through the painting model and model tests to the original work called Meteorite Fall. With the specifi c properties of concrete and glass in mind, they created a work that resonates with the unique architecture of Hubáček and also enriches it with an impressive proof of unique visual art with timeless validity.
