For example, Kristian Kodet, Iva Hüttnerová, Boris Jirků, Jiří Slíva or Kateřina Miler contributed their works to this year's Salon of Film Flaps, which is a traditional part of the accompanying program of the Zlín festival. The auction took place this afternoon in the large hall of the Zlín Congress Center. “Even the artists themselves took part in it, such as Kateřina Miler, Jiří Dudycha, Zdeněk Vrba, Bára Fišerová or Martina Charvátová Skácelová. They were present at the auction itself and watched how much their works were auctioned for. Interest in the auction is increasing year by year, auctioneers today they filled the hall of the congress center,” said Martykánová.
