Novoročenka Fenomén výtvarné kultury

The book provides a brief overview of the development of the New Year's card from its beginnings to the present day.

It focuses in particular on the New Year's cards of artists and graphic designers during the period of the so-called normalisation, when it was at its peak. The New Year card then became one of the few platforms of creativity on which artists forcibly excluded from the official scene could express themselves freely. The New Year's genre cultivated personal identity and an awareness of professional and civic community.

The main aim of each chapter is to elucidate the various creative and communicative possibilities of the New Year's card.
