The Egon Schiele Art Centrum is a fantastic maze-like old building that's just as much fun to roam around as sampling its exhibitions of art.
Named after the prominent unconventional artist of Czech and Austrian descent whose heart was devoted to the beauty of Český Krumlov, the gallery contains a permanent collection of Schiele's work.
The 2008 exhibits, in time for the Summer Olympics and all the political controversy, dedicate a large portion of the space to images, philosophy and customs of China. There is a fantastic tongue-in-cheek solo exhibit by young Chinese multi-media artist Yonghua Tian who creates the perfect nationalistic emblem, dogma and inspirational instructions using his own stylized image as the central logo driving the brave new world.
WELCOME
Welcome to Trail of Gems!
I toyed with calling this blog "On the Crumb Trail" for that fairytale feeling of a Journey Through Unknown , but decided that this was created not for me to find my way back, but to recommend inspiring, cozy, budget-friendly resources and havens I have found along the way.
These pages contain listings under these major categories:
See + Do - sights, activities, must-experiences
Stay - accommodation I'd send my dearest friends to
Ride - modes of transport to ramble, roam and gallivant at will
Eat - as if I wouldn't have something to say on this subject!
Plan - extensive libraries of researched advice
Speak - basic language skills to order food, say thank you, etc.
Act - collaborate, volunteer and cultivate awareness
Enjoy, respond and love life!
