SUMMARY:Desire to Create: Baťa's Architecture of Belonging
DESCRIPTION:The Czech Centre London\, in collaboration with the Tomáš Baťa Foundation and the Bata Heritage Centre\, marks the 150th anniversary of Czech entrepreneur Tomáš Baťa\, founder of the global Baťa Shoe Company\, with an exhibition exploring his achievements and guiding principles and their realisation in East Tilbury. It reveals how ideas about work\, culture\, sport\, health and community were embedded in the design of the built environment.\n\nThe exhibition unfolds in two complementary strands. Desire to Create presents Baťa’s legacy as a comprehensive philosophy\, uniting work with service\, enterprise with education\, and personal development with responsibility towards others – not as a relic of the past\, but as a continuing source of inspiration. Baťa’s Architecture of Belonging brings East Tilbury to life through architectural drawings\, historic photographs and original artefacts\, evoking its distinctive modernist atmosphere. Together\, they trace how ideas were translated into built form – from vision to planning\, from planning to everyday life – creating a cohesive narrative of belonging\, work and community.\n\nOrganised by Czech Centre London in partnership with Bata Heritage Centre.\n\n 	EXHIBITION OPENING\nThursday 9 April 2026\, 6.30 – 8.30 pm\nFree entry\, Register Here\n 	EXHIBITION DATES: 10 April – 12 June 2026\n 	VENUE & OPENING TIMES\nVitrínka Gallery\, Czech Centre London\n30 Kensington Palace Gardens\, London\, W8 4QY\nOpening hours: Tue – Fri 10am – 5pm

SUMMARY:Third Person (Plural): A Cinematic Essay by Aikaterini Gegisian
DESCRIPTION:Third Person (Plural) is Aikaterini Gegisian’s feature-length cinematic essay\, built from over 200 postwar U.S. informational films and newsreels drawn from the Library of Congress and the National Archives. What begins as an exploration of early European integration history unfolds into a feminist re-reading of the masculine gaze that shaped the ‘new world order’.   \nThis layered work unfolds across a multi-screen installation\, a feature-length essay film\, and an artist’s book. Originating as a quest to source documents of early European integration processes in the post-war United States\, the project unfolds into an expansive feminist re-reading of the hegemonic masculine gaze and its manifestation in material images. The work is a bracing encounter with the gaze that produced the ‘image’ of the world as the new\, Western order\, bound by the notion of a united Europe\, the delirium of the Cold War\, and decolonisation processes. Casting a female gaze upon this history\, Third Person (Plural) reclaims the unseen perspectives that haunt the margins of official narratives\, making visible a collective ‘third person’.  \nGegisian will be joined by Shoair Mavlian\, Director of The Photographers’ Gallery\, for a discussion and Q&A.

Both studies are forthcoming publications in ANTIQVVS magazine.\n\nAlexis Kyriacou\, archaeologist and PhD researcher at the University of Reading\, will present Sculpture and Identity in Archaic Cyprus (740–475 BC)\, examining limestone votive figures from across the island. His talk explores how Greek\, Phoenician\, Egyptian\, and native traditions fused to create hybrid forms that reflect Cyprus’ central place in the ancient Mediterranean.\n\nDr Mark Merrony\, Editor in Chief of ANTIQVVS magazine and Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries\, will focus on the mosaics of Kykkos Monastery\, demonstrating how Cypriot art continued to negotiate influences from East and West into the Byzantine and later periods.\n\nThe evening will include time for audience questions and discussion\, followed by a wine and snack reception\, offering further opportunities for exchange among academics\, students\, and enthusiasts of Cypriot history and art.
