Vera Caslavska, a beautiful flower that bloomed in the Tokyo Olympics
Vera Caslavska Foundation in cooperation with Czech Centre Tokyo and JOM will introduce the life of Vera Caslavska together with her words, how she lived her life as an athlete and a woman: powerful, graceful and resilient, standing true to her beliefs.
Fascinating many people with her beautiful and elegant performance, Vera Caslavska won great fame and was applauded as the darling of Tokyo at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. This exhibition in Japan Olympic Museum (JOM) takes place in spring, her favourite season in Japan, to pay homage to the footsteps of Vera Caslavska, who embodied the Olympic spirit in the true sense: mutual understanding transcending all differences and contributing to world peace through physical and mental training in sports.
