Plečnik and Rothmayer – a Story of Two Villas and Two Friends

"Plečnik and Rothmayer. Teacher and student. The latter built his home in Prague according to Plečnik’s Villa Stadion in Ljubljana, built due to the Bežigrad stadium. By buying a ticket for the lottery raffle, people were able to support the stadium’s construction and had a chance of winning the grand prize – the Plečnik villa." We are inviting you to watch the TV Slovenia coverage of the exhibition Plečnik and Rothmayer: Two Friends, Two Houses, Two Cities.

The exhibition at the Plečnik House presents the stories of both villas and that of the life of Plečnik’s student Otto Rothmayer, whom Plečnik later also befriended and collaborated with. The exhibition was visited by journalist Tina Šrot, who prepared an interesting piece for the Friday’s show Kultura po Odmevih, which you can watch by following this link.
