Michal Jindra

Zeitschrift Umělec 2001/2

01.02.2001

Lenka Lindaurová | vorgestellt | en cs

Jindra (b. 1978) studied at the Applied Arts College in Prague, in the Illustration and Graphics Studio of professor Jiří Šalamoun, from 1997 – 2000.


Michal Jindra is impossible to categorize due to the number of genres he works in. His work could be described as either outsider art or the product of a psychologically disturbed individual, perhaps an extraterrestrial. He makes it difficult to estimate the extent to which this is due to his confused imagination, his thought processes or the untamed clamor of his subconscious. Probably all of the above blend together in the creation of his psychedelic and intelligent, original works. His comics and cartoons are typical for their childlike style, dominated by deliberate color schemes and composition tricks. Jindra uses an innocent black humor, which gives his infantile works almost terrifying dimension. The stories seem ambiguous, but they inherently radiate the hope that good will triumph over evil. Sci-fi elements in Jindra’s work are the result of his extra-social cognition rather than any tendentious factors. It is interesting to follow Jindra’s development, which can be best described as apocalyptic. It’s a shame that he was thrown out of art school.

Those working in the fine arts who make paintings are called artists. Otherwise in the backwaters and marshlands the rest of the artists are lost in search of new and ever surprising methods. They must be earthbound, casual, political, managerial,…
Nick Land, Ein Experiment im Inhumanismus Nick Land, Ein Experiment im Inhumanismus
Nick Land war ein britischer Philosoph, den es nicht mehr gibt, ohne dass er gestorben ist. Sein beinahe neurotischer Eifer für das Herummäkeln an Narben der Realität, hat manch einen hoffnungsvollen Akademiker zu einer obskuren Weise des Schaffens verleitet, die den Leser mit Originalität belästigt. Texte, die er zurückgelassen hat, empören, langweilen und treiben noch immer zuverlässig die Wissenschaftler dazu, sie als „bloße“ Literatur einzustufen und damit zu kastrieren.
Magda Tóthová Magda Tóthová
Mit Anleihen aus Märchen, Fabeln und Science-Fiction drehen sich die Arbeiten von Magda Tóthová um moderne Utopien, Gesellschaftsentwürfe und deren Scheitern. Persönliche und gesellschaftliche Fragen, Privates und Politisches werden behandelt. Die Personifizierung ist das zentrale Stilmittel für die in den Arbeiten stets mitschwingende Gesellschaftskritik und das Verhandeln von Begriffen, auf…
