Celda Klouček

From 1888 to 1916, he was a professor at his alma mater in Prague; overseeing a studio for decorative drawing and modeling.

He was also involved in the ceramics studio, and worked together with Professor Emanuel Novák (1866–1918) in the Academy's artistic metal program.

Through his own studies, and collaborations with the paleontologists at the National Museum, he developed into a knowledgeable researcher; publishing his own discoveries in the professional journals.

He also designed stucco pieces for interiors and exteriors, fireplace masks and lamps, as well as other arts and crafts items.

Around 1900, he began designing in the Art Nouveau style and exhibited at the Exposition Universelle in Paris.
