Traveling Exhibition: Žatec and the Landscape of Saaz Hops
Seven exhibition panels showcase the world's first hop-growing landscape inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
About the Exhibition
The set consists of seven double-sided panels in Czech and English. The content presents the history of hop growing, the development of the town of Žatec, hop-related architecture, and the cultural values of the Landscape of Saaz Hops.
The panels are technically self-sufficient – they feature solar power, a timer, and a dimmer, and therefore require no connection to the electrical grid or intervention in the site's infrastructure.
The exhibition system meets the parameters for prestigious outdoor installations (Prague Castle, historic centers of heritage towns, university campuses). Apart from the Medialogue company, we are the only entity in the Czech Republic to own these prestigious exhibition panels, and their placement in other towns thus enhances the attractiveness of public spaces. In the winter season, their visual impact stands out especially when illuminated, which is controlled by an automatic switch.
For the exhibition to fulfill its public and educational purpose, we are looking for a highly frequented, publicly accessible location.
