Transformation of Place: From Steel to Science and Architecture

15:30 – 16:15 THE BIG BANG STAGE

Josef Pleskot and Pavel Cejnar; Moderated by Sara Polak

How does a former industrial complex become a vibrant space for culture, science, art, and human connection? Dolní Vítkovice is one of the most compelling examples of a place that has not lost its memory but has found a new purpose.

At a science museum dedicated to bringing science closer to the public, two perspectives on the world around us come together. Architect Josef Pleskot will explore how industrial architecture and public spaces can be transformed with sensitivity and respect for their history. Quantum and nuclear physicist Pavel Cejnar will offer the perspective of science, from the beauty of physical laws and the mysteries of the quantum world to humanity’s enduring desire to understand the universe around us.

In a discussion moderated by Sara Polak, architecture, physics, and art will meet in a conversation about transformation, curiosity, and the ways we shape our world.
