Basic information
Crossroads
PRAHO! project and the Prague Congress Centre have jointly created a unique artistic realization called Crossroads, located under the north terrace of the KCP, which brings art into the public space.
The physical realisation of Crossroads reflects words, feelings, thoughts, but also contains educational and interactive elements that ensure that the audience can engage with the installation throughout its duration. Thoughtfully, the realisation reflects a journey and connection. Connecting history and present, connecting places and connecting people. The visual inspiration is drawn from paths, from maps, signposts and circular road signs that point people in the direction they should go, but at the same time there is space left for exploration.
The implementation also includes an augmented reality (AR) element that enriches the experience with an additional layer of perception. Through the Artivive app, you can play the digital content - just point your phone screen at the smaller of the password murals From where, to where, to where.
PRAHO! project is an artistic non-profit organization that revitalizes public space and strives to create a space for sharing inner thoughts and authentic feelings. At the same time, it opens a debate on the pressing problems of society and restores a human face to the city through art and honest words.
Prague Congress Centre (KCP), which is participating in the project and is fully funded by it, not only underlines its role as an important cultural and social centre, but also shows how public space can be enriched with innovative artistic elements that stimulate discussion and engage the general public.

Explore where the road takes you
The categories - From Where, Which way, Where to - open up space for reflection and discovery. Each of them represents a different angle on the transformation of art, culture, community and self. In this dynamic space, we explore how our journeys change as we change our view of the world around us. "From Where" brings us to our roots and original beliefs, "To Where" leads us through processes of exploration, change and the discovery of new possibilities and perspectives. And "Where" is the question of where all these paths will lead us - what new direction we will discover in art, culture and in our perception of ourselves in the context of the global world. What impact does our journey have on where we are going as individuals and as a society?
