Josef Lada’s Drawing Came Alive! (Karikatura od Josefa Lady Oživla!)

January 25, 2009

Článek v ČEŠTINĚ dole (Klikněte na “Read the rest …”)

Who doesn’t know Josef Lada, a writer, caricaturist and illustrator of cartoons of Svejk (The Good Soldier Svejk), Mikes (Mikes the Tomcat), beautiful Czech landscapes, and pictures from everyday lives? His self-taught drawing technique is known around the world. You may have seen his Water Sprite (Vodník), Hog-killing Time (Zabíjačka), Czech Bethlehem (Český betlém), Czech Countryside (Česká krajina), or Fracas in the Pub (Rvačka v hospodě). The lastly named illustration brought so much attention to the Czech public and organizers of Josef Lada’s Museum that they decided to reconstruct this scene with volunteers dressed in Czech historical costumes.

 

The recruitment for this event started less than two weeks ago. Many people wanted to attend this historic day that would also conclude the Lada exhibition (11/20/08 - /1/25/09) in Haná Museum (Hanácký Skanzen) in Příkazy, Olomouc. The event was scheduled for this Saturday and many volunteers and observers came to this festive occasion. The museum, however, was crammed almost every day of this exhibition because it was always filled to its capacity and many people had to wait outside. Simply put, the exhibition with 177 of Lada’s drawings sparked the attention of many people and was a great success.

 

Švejk

The room that was chosen for the reconstruction of the fight was much smaller than in Lada’s picture. The capacity was about 20 people, which was about half of the people depicted in the cartoon. The whole event lasted four hours, which allowed for many people to stand in front of the camera. The event was organized by the museum and was directed by David Hrbek. One very important figure from the drawing was missing. The innkeeper (hospodský) was missing but was brightly replaced by the good soldier Svejk.

Kdo by neznal Josefa Ladu, spisovatele, karikaturistu a ilustrátora obrázků Švejka (Dobrý voják Švejk), kocoura Mikeše, krásných českých krajin a obrázků z každodenního života? Jeho vlastní kreslící technika, kterou si vytvořil jako samouk, je známá po celém světě. Možná jste viděli jeho Vodníka, Zabíjačku, Český Betlém, Českou krajinu, nebo Rvačku v hospodě. Poslední zmíněná ilustrace přinesla tolik pozornosti, že se česká veřejnost a organizátoři výstavy Josefa Lady rozhodli rekonstruovat tuto scénu s dobrovolníky oblečenými v českých historických kostýmech.

 

Hospoda

Nábor pro tuto slavnou událost začal před méně než před dvěma týdny. Mnoho lidí se ale chtělo zúčastnit tohoto historického dne, který uzavřel Ladovu výstavu (20. 11. 08 - 25. 1. 09.) v Hanáckém Skanzenu v Příkazech, Olomouc. Akce byla naplánována na tuto sobotu a mnoha dobrovolníků ale i pozorovatelů se přišlo zúčastnit této akce. Toto muzeum však bylo přeplněné téměř každý den během výstavy, protože jeho kapacita byla vždy naplněna a mnoho lidí muselo čekat venku. Jednoduše řečeno, výstava se 177 Ladovými výkresy pobízela pozornost mnoha lidí a měla velký úspěch.

 

Vánoce

Místnost, která byla vybrána pro rekonstrukci rvačky, byla mnohem menší než v Ladovém obrázku. Její kapacita byla asi 20 lidí, což byla asi polovina osob znázorněných v kresbě. Celá akce trvala čtyři hodiny, což umožnilo mnoha lidem se postavit před kameru. Akci řízenou Davidem Hrbkem pořádalo vlastní muzeum. Jeden z velmi důležitých osob z kresby - hospodský - však chyběl, ale byl nahrazen dobrým vojákem Švejkem.

Other Countries Fire Back on Entropa and Humiliate Czechs (Ostatní země Reagují na Entropu a Ponižují Čechy) | CzechFolks.com | January 29, 2009 | 12:28 am

[...] A Slovak artist, Martin Sutovec, drew a caricature of a known beetle (Brouk Pytlik) that showed Czechs as weasels wearing socks with sandals. Oliver Schopf, an Austrian caricaturist illustrated Czechs as people that always protest against something. He said, “Now show us you also have a sense of humor.” A Bulgarian artist, Veneta Gergova, reflected back on a Turkish toilet (that was shown as a symbol of their country) with a beer that was probably a reason for Cerny’s irrational thinking. Urmas Nemvalts, from Estonia even attacked the famous Czech illustrator Josef Lada by putting Svejk on a goat with a beer overruling Gazprom.
