Czech designer Bořek Šípek has died

The Czech Embassy in The Hague received with great sadness news of the death of world-famous Czech designer Mr. Bořek Šípek.

Bořek Šípek´s life is inextricably linked with the Netherlands, his work is evident in several places, the building of the Museum of Modern Art in den Den Bosch to give just one example. In The Hague, we had the honor to unveil together with Bořek Šípek one of his Vaclav Havel´s Places in November 2014. The opening of Bořek Šípek´s exhibition at the Comenius Museum in Naarden this month has not materialised any more, unfortunately. The Czech Embassy in The Hague expresses its deepest condolences to the family of Bořek Šípek and to all his friends.
