MgA. Hynek Barak, DiS. (1990) is a graduate of Petr Kvíčala's painting studio at FaVU BUT and Higher vocational school of restoration in Brno. The work of Hynek Bařák is characterized by the interweaving of realistic figural motifs and layered color ornamentation, by which the formats are connected into a compactly processed surface. In his works, he is greatly inspired by antiquity and the Middle Ages, which has a great influence on his work. It is a period in which he is actively interested and has accompanied him practically since childhood. The paintings mainly feature motifs of knightly armor, medieval artefacts and motifs that are essential and such cornerstones of his work. Armor is fascinated for its technical perfection, ornamentation and majesty in the later period of the Middle Ages. Actually, the armor no longer fulfilled only a protective function, but also a representative one, and we can consider it as a work of art itself, a sculpture. Visually, he mainly draws on historical inspirations, which, among other things, are manifested in his works in ornamental, dramatic handwriting or historicizing paraphrases. In his later works, he partially deviates from realistic themes and tends mainly to more relaxed manifestations with a specific, distinct linear abstraction, where he was inspired by organ music, as his other key theme. His work is united by a specific visual language based on structural strokes with a brush, which, intermingled, form a whole mosaic. Hynek Bařák freely experiments with various techniques layered on top of each other. We cannot neglect his recycling of older, found or discarded paintings. Here he works in the form of collage, recycled works are cut into strips, randomly put together and adapted to the current manuscript. The artist therefore decided to incorporate them into new works that we can interpret time-lapse. The new work thus bears the marks of the past, when it allowed old works to be given "new life" and penetrate into the present. In this way, a sediment of different interpretive layers is formed, which speak over each other. It thus creates a variable, but at the same time compact whole, with an unmistakable visual signature. For a long time, Hynek Bařák deals cyclically with a narrow range of topics that are connected to each other in some way and which constantly upcycles through his distinctive style.
