- The botanical garden in Liberec is hosting an exhibition featuring work by about 25 artists and glassworks as part of Crystal Valley Week.

Glass has entered the botanical garden in Liberec, where an unusual exhibition brings together living plants and the work of glassmakers from the Crystal Valley.
About 25 artists and glassworks are presenting their creations under the banner of the Crystal Valley Week festival. Their pieces appear among the garden’s greenery, creating a meeting point between the natural world and one of the region’s best-known artistic traditions.
The exhibition focuses on the ways glass can reflect nature. The displayed works take inspiration from the forms, structures, and colors found in plants and the surrounding environment.
By placing glass among the ferns and other living plants, the exhibition presents the material in a setting that echoes its central source of inspiration. The Liberec botanical garden thus becomes both a venue for the festival and a space where glass art can be viewed in direct connection with nature.
