You are cordially invited to the opening of the exhibition Modernita a Holocaust. We look forward to meeting and discussing.

Exhibition description:
The exhibition Modernity and the Holocaust presents student architectural designs for the Moravian Jewish Museum - Mehrin, created at the Department of Experimental Design.
The title of the exhibition refers to the book of the same name by Zygmunt Bauman. In this book (as well as in many other publications) Bauman analyses the relationship between modern thinking and Holocaust. He presents a very powerful and for many controversial (for others demagogic or heretical) thesis that the Holocaust is the most extreme outgrowth of this thinking.
The architectural projects presented in this exhibition had the ambition to apply Bauman's thesis in the field of architecture.
The exhibition also includes thesis projects in which their authors (in the early stages of their pre-diploma project), created their own analyses of the city of Brno in those layers that are beyond the "conventional" thinking ("modernist" in Bauman's sense). Analyses that sought to look at the city from a different, perhaps previously unexplored perspective, and were an attempt to discover "other" Brno, overlooked and rejected (not fitting into the officially "accepted" whole).
