THE LARGE AND SMALL GALLERY

The Story of Orava in Painting
At a unique moment, the First Lady of the Tatras marries the first lady of the fine arts of Orava - Mária Medvecká. Orava painter, national artist, Mária Medvecká was born in the first year of the First World War - in 1914 in Medvedzie near Tvrdošín. Perhaps the reader has no idea that Mária Medvecká was the granddaughter of one of the founding members of Živena in Horná Orava. Mária had an artistic feeling and a strong local patriotism literally in her blood.

Slovak Story in Prague

We are adding "Slovak Story in Prague" to the "Slovak Story in Painting" and "The Story of the Slovak Landscape Painting". What should one perceive under such a name? Slovak Fine Art of the 20th century originated from the Upper-Hungarian context (tied to the impulses of art academies in Budapest, Vienna, Munich and Paris), where initially, the key personalities of art modernism such as Ladislav Medňanský and Dominic Skutecký were seen. Because their artwork is on view in Hotel Lomnica, a visitor can perceive them contextually.

EXHIBITED WORKS

A gallery which offers accommodation
The First Lady of the Tatras holds up to 500 art acquisitions which capture the amazing span in the history of art from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries with plein air (outdoor), luminist and impressive tendencies through the classic Slovak interwar modern art to the revitalization of the legacy by the post-war generation of the followers of M. Galanda. There are also strong non-affiliated and post-generational interwar and post-war tendencies. The works of art are located not only in the hotel corridors or in two hotel galleries, but they are also located directly in the respective rooms allowing the hotel rightfully bear its original designation – A gallery which offers accommodation.

Gallery Curator

“As a young art historian, I had the honour to participate in the opening of the Miloš Alexander Bazovský Gallery in Trenčín. Then, as a collections administrator and head of the professional department, I devoted myself to extensive exhibition, publication, curatorial, pedagogical, and forensic activities at home and abroad. I am glad that after many years, I can take advantage of this experience again in the unique project that is the Lomnica Gallery.” - Marián Kvasnička

Gallery publications (in Slovak and English) from authors Marián Kvasnička, Jozef Vydrnák, Petr Bližnák and Pavel Moško can be purchased at the hotel reception, in the hotel shop or ordered by phone or e-mail.

Lomnica Gallery

In the hustle and bustle of today's busy world, we would like to allow you a little break and perhaps a unique moment to stop and contemplate. At the very beginning, there was the idea of creating a gallery under the majestic peak of Lomnický štít. www.galerialomnica.sk
