Czech Japanologist, translator, journalist, calligrapher, photographer, and educator Petr Geisler (1949–2009) left a unique and original mark on the development of relations between the Czech Republic (formerly Czechoslovakia) and Japan—not only through the bold sweeps and strokes of his paintbrush. The exhibition at DOX Centre for Contemporary Art, dedicated to Geisler’s lifelong creative output, will be the most comprehensive presentation of his works to date—from his expressive calligraphy, which he created spontaneously during his “idle moments” between work, through multiple-exposure photography from 1980s Japan, to his monumental inscription of the Buddhist Heart Sutra, which once adorned a wall of the Metro Palace arcade on Prague’s Národní Street.
