DANCING HOUSE
A building in the most sought after empty lot in the historical centre of Prague. The former building of the land was destroyed during a bombing in 1945, and the remains of what was once in 1960. In the mid 1990s the German bank ING decides to finance the contruction of an office building and gives the design to Czech Vlado Milunic but on condition he can work with someone architect "World Famous". Milunic finally works with Frank Gehry and planning in this small plot of about 491 square meters an office building that resembles a pair of dancers dancing near the Vltava River. For the construction of the Building took 99 panels of reinforced concrete, all different shapes and sizes until its completion in 1996. Set in city consisting of Baroque Neo- Gothic and Art Nouveau buildings.
Ghery accepted plethora of criticism, from the fact that is seamlessly fits into historical context and also  by the fact that that many  lintels of windows  are not internal to the correct height.
Despite the criticism the Dancing House remains a Building that breathes  life into  the History, Presence and   the Future.

 "Beautiful" and  "aesthetic" are two  perpetual situations that could meet in every society of Humans Life, in every aspect of humans thought, in every spot of the worlds map, in every period of Human History.  But when the time comes and The Old gives way in the New, when the mystery of Future becomes Reality, when the power of life succeeded the dispair of weakness, then it takes a moment to change your life. But this moment could stay forever live.
Buildings hosting lives, spaces are filling peoples actions, nothing is empty but our aspects.
The lonely part of a building, an eMPTY wall made of soil, water and rock with a wardrobe of 1950's hanging in the air is now attached to a new creation, to a new society, to new lives, to Presence. The remnants of history shown in this building will now breathe life into a pure imagination, will regenerate an old society that lived between these walls. And that's a matter for our perspectives, a matter for our Beautiful MINDS.

The course of man in the wORLD. A surrealist engagement between colours, shapes and meanings. The human left free into a space with limits. The limits that human set himself. Limits with aesthetic lanes and curves, with colours that man borrowed from the Universe. Man at the centre of his own World.  
A creation that belongs to the stream of symbolism. The positions of the Geometric shapes that was given into the painting surface combined with the realistic and earthy colour selection, yielded the best level of the power of painting LANGUAGE. The Human Beauty attributed to a harmonious space that was resulted into an aesthetic perspective of what we call cOSMOS.
