Castle Bílovec (Zámek Bílovec) is presenting an extensive project of paintings replicas of a historical ancestral gallery made by a single artist, Rosana de Montfort.
The project has been initiated by two people:
- The castle curator Eduard Valeš, who has organized the administrative and diplomatic side of the project, negotiated with the noble families, whose paintings were replicated and organized a license from the National department of historical preservation.
- Rosana de Montfort, a Czech contemporary artist, restorer and gallery owner, who has painted the replicas to match the original historical originals. She also is the collection keeper and curator.
in a collaboration with the castle curator, Eduard Valeš, I created ancestrial gallery of relatives of the noble families Thun-Hohenstein, Tenczin-Paczinsky, Pino-Friedenthal, Barons von Bartenstein and Prince Archbishop von Colloredo-Wallsee und Mels.
In cooperation with Kunín Castle and thanks to friendly relations with surviving noble families in Germany, Austria, Poland and the USA, Mr. Kastelán obtained photographs of the originals, according to which I painted the copies.
The National Heritage Institute also gave us permission to copy these paintings.
The exposition now holds 30 replicated art pieces, and the collection will continue to grow. The artworks are painted with oil paints on canvas and are presented in historical frames. The display is situated at the Castle Bílovec (Zámek Bílovec) at the corridors of the first floor of the castle. The project should hold the largest historical remake of an artwork castle collection ever made by a single artist and will be enlarged by several pieces every year to decorate the castle interiors.
The collection is produced to bring back the heritage of a historical landmark and to return its cultural heritage content in order to save a piece of culture lost due to the II Warld War.
The ancestral gallery will be showcased at the castle during the visitors season and then in De Montfort Gallery during the winter season, where it will undergo yearly restoration and maintenance, but also be the subject of an art review hosted by the artist, Rosana de Montfort and narrated by the castle curator and historian, Eduard Valeš.
With this act there is a hope for the return of tradition, history and culture to find a way to its people and to boost tourism, interpersonal relations, cultural development and a reason to be proud of our heritage.
"UN VOYAGE" - Radomír Bárta, Vincent Chignier, Rosana de Montfort
House of culture Kroměříž | Foyer 9.12. at 17:00
Some destinies come together for a moment, some for a piece of life. The exhibition of three artists is the result of a collaboration that grew into friendship. It is precisely this camaraderie that connects their steps through art again and again on the same journey together. The exhibition entitled "un voyage" is proof of mutual respect, sincerity and connection.
The work of each of the artists is very different and after all touches on one topic: what is most dear to us in life. For Radomír, it is the sea fauna and the peace he finds in its presence. Vincent assembles rare fragments of fate into painted collages of interpersonal relationships and life moments. Preservation of an organic lifestyle and the fight against artificial intelligence is Rosana's most frequent topic.
Their journey, "un voyage" led this year through several joint projects in Olomouc, Novy Jičín, Šternberk, Brno and now they will stop for a moment in Kroměříž. You can visit their exhibition from December 9, 2024 to February 11, 2025. The exhibition will open with an opening on Monday, December 9 at 5 p.m. in the foyer of the Kroměříž House of Culture under the curatorial baton of Robert Rohál. The vernissage will be presented by Romana Blažková.

CHATEAU GALLERY project
This project arose not only from the need for a larger art venue for the exposition "ROMY&ROSE", but also from the common interest with the curatorium of the Bílovec Chateau and the town hall. The idea to widen the touristic attraction by an art experience was met with optimism and the castle curator Eduard Valeš offered a hall on the ground floor for this purpose. In the next 3 months the premise has undergone a refurbishment,
