The catalogue is made well. The text by Katerina Capkova and Milan Hlaves starting the content describing The Stanislav Libensky Award’s history, followed by small texts by all former jury members, giving insight in the process of selecting through the years and then showing the selected artists and their works in smaller black and white photos and text in the edition 2014 Stanislav Libensky Award. Half way the catalogue an essay by Oldrich Palata and photo sculpture on Stanislav Libensky and Jaroslava Brychtová show how strong their sculptures still work today, followed by page large photos in full colour showing the selected works from which the final winner is chosen. These works are in the exposition in the gallery Art Salon S in the Dancing House from 19th September to 14th December 2014, see Agenda>

Good to read to understand the goal of the award and good to have to follow these young students from this start through their professional life.
