Marvel, Learn and Engage in Prague

AT the intersection of art and literature, past and future, the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art’s newest installation, the Gulliver Airship, invites visitors to enter and ponder all of the above. 

Looming above the gallery, this creation, envisioned by DOX’s founder Leoš Válka and created by architect Martin Rajniš, is constructed in the iconic shape of a 42 meter (~46 yard) zeppelin out of steel and wood. Although the Airship’s exterior is both a permanent complement to DOX’s rotation of provocative exhibitions and contrast to its stark design, its interior provides a unique space for visitors to pause and reflect.

As a work of art and architecture, Gulliver is notable in the Holešovice district skyline for its modern arched shape and construction of wood and steel, and is breathtaking from both inside and out. the cavernous Gulliver Airship, capable of seating 120 people, will provide a space for a rich program of events, speakers, and workshops for tourists and the #Prague community to discuss works of writing thematically tied to DOX’s exhibitions.
