Exhibition projects, including some abroad, play a significant part in his creative activities. He was involved directly in the preparation and realisation of the Czechoslovak exhibition at EXPO 86 in Vancouver, Canada, and has applied his experience (as author) in global exhibitions especially in the competition for the scenario for the Czech pavilion at EXPO 92 in Sevilla (receiving the second highest award). He was the author of the winning scenario and script for the Czech Republic´s pavilion at the Universal World Exhibition EXPO 2000 in Hanover. Permanent exhibitions , such as “People and Money” in the Czech National Bank and the “Exposition of Time” in Šternberk, have of late become the particular focus of his main activities. These demonstrate and utilise in full his long-standing experience, integrated approach to presentation and ability to manage projects completely from their inception to their final implementation.
