Jan Koniarek Gallery, Trnava
In 2002 permanent exhibition of sculpture works by Jan Koniarek entered cultural life in Trnava. Artistic message of Jan Koniarek (30. 1. 1878 Voderady - 4. 5. 1952 Trnava) became substantial for Slovak modern sculpture. The extension of the gallery building of the Koppel house and realisation of permanent exhibition is an exceptional step forward and currently are presented approximately 60 works by Jan Koniarek.

Artistic message of Jan Koniarek (30. 1. 1878 Voderady - 4. 5. 1952 Trnava)
became substantial for Slovak modern sculpture. The extension of the gallery
building of the Koppel house and realisation of permanent exhibition is an
exceptional step forward and currently are presented approximately 60 works
by Jan Koniarek. Not only does the exhibition allow visual experience, the
visitors are also enabled to feel and touch the art, as all the sculptures
except for those made of marble are destined for haptic experience.
