Mint is pleased to announce Chez Czech, a retrospective of Czech designer Maxim Velcovsky to take place over the month of April. To compliment Maxim’s extensive body of work, Mint will also exhibit a selection of works by other emerging and established Czech designers.

Well renowned for its array of established talent in glassmaking, Czech design has increasingly begun to shown itself at the forefront of experimental avant–garde design across the field of applied crafts.

Of the new crop of designers to take centre–stage, Maxim is among the most notable as the 2007 Designer of the Year for Czech Grand Design. Co–founder of the multiple award–winning Qubus Design Studio, Maxim’s work has recently been exhibited in the Victoria & Albert’s exhibition Telling Tales.
