It focuses on artists who approach glass as an artistic medium and helps to introduce their works not only to domestic but also to foreign collectors and professionals. Since 2020, they have also been working on the restoration of the historic Lemberk Granary, which they have turned into a space for sculpture exhibitions and interventions, large-scale objects and a sculpture park in its surroundings. This project combines respect for Czech glass craft and sculpture with a modern artistic approach, creating a unique environment where tradition and innovation find common ground.
