10th International Exhibition of Scenography
and Theatre Architecture

It is our pleasure to announce the 10th Prague Quadrennial International Exhibition of Scenography and Theatre Architecture, taking place in June 2003. This unique exhibition has been held in the Czech Republic every four years since 1967 and has received the continuous support of UNESCO.
For the 10th time Prague will become a place to confront the trends of World Theatre, a place for meeting scenographers from all over the world (they will be competing for the main award Golden Triga and Golden and Silver Medals). Prague will also become an enormous living databank of information that gives a picture of the current state of theatre culture in five continents of the World.
The tenth anniversary of the Prague Quadrennial, held in the spirit of the motto "The Labyrinth of the World and Paradise of the Theatre", will be a celebration of creativity. Exhibitors in the National Section are invited to conceptualize the individual exhibits as scenic objects that will remain open with adjacent exhibits. Theatre Architecture Section will provide space for diverse relationships, opinions and contexts in its field. Students will not only exhibit their academic works, but will also have a chance to learn, examine and meet in the SUMMER SCENOFEST organized by OISTAT (International Organization of Scenographers, Theatre Architects and technicians).
The "Heart of the Prague Quadrennial" will be a place for performances, presentations, and experiments where various theatre artists can meet each other and encounter the audience.
Encompassing the theatre and visual arts, PQ 03 hopes to penetrate the district cultures, their history as well as their current condition today, leading us into a labyrinth of imagination and spiritual context.
