PATRICIE FEXOVÁ
|
| (b.1975) graduated from the Fine Arts Academy in Prague, in Painting Studio 2 of Professor Vladimír Skrepl.Patricie Fexová does not have the sort of clean-cut hand that allows immediate recognition of her work. It is thus all the more surprising to see her paintings of wrung-out clothing and a studio followed by Bill Gates sporting an erection and lying in the grass, or a one-meter-long black… |

JAROSLAV MATULA
|
| Born in 1977, Matula has studied since 1999 in Petr Kvíčala’s studio at FaVU (the Department of Fine Arts at the Technical University in Brno). Matula’s simple concept relies on his relationship to a mutant figure, an undefined creature, strangely remote. As for Matula’s identity, he creates a whole set of different logos analogous to a wide range of commercial products. He created the company… |

JITKA CHRIŠTOFOVÁ
|
| Born in 1977, Chrištofová studies in the graphic arts studio with Vladimír Kokolia at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague.
Chrištofová is one of the few marginal artists who attempts to capture landscapes in her drawings and paintings, or, more precisely, her personal feelings for landscapes, which bear completely different meanings for today’s art and human life. Because she uses photographs… |
