Skate Art Studio¶

Art on skateboards. From a UNESCO city.

skateartstudio.eu — the full catalogue, all artists, bilingual EN/CS.

What it is¶

Skate Art Studio is a label and platform, not just an annual exhibition. Each year, artists create original works on skateboard decks. The decks are exhibited, documented, and offered for sale. The catalogue grows. The artists change. The platform continues.

The name Telč carries weight outside the Czech Republic even if locals take it for granted. A UNESCO heritage site of five thousand people, Renaissance architecture, and now — art on skateboards. That combination travels.

The model¶

The financial structure is transparent by design:

• 80 % of each sale goes to the artist (net of statutory 15 % withholding tax)
• 10 % goes to Skate Club Telč — directly funding community infrastructure
• 10 % covers operations and promotion

No hidden margins. No gallery overhead. The artist keeps the majority. The community gets a share of every sale.

Vernisáž 2026¶

Friday, July 3rd 2026, 16:30 CET Ground floor of Telč Town Hall — free entry.

The following day, Saturday July 4th, Ulrike Reinhard visits Telč — the founder of the Janwaar skatepark in India, whose principles Skate Club Telč independently arrived at before the two projects ever met. Read about Ulrike's visit.

The catalogue¶

The growing collection of documented works — each deck with artist profile, process notes, and availability — lives at skateartstudio.eu.

The site is bilingual EN/CS. International enquiries welcome.
