Igor Šalamoun (b. May 17, 1964, Prague) is a contemporary expressive artist creating richly textured acrylic reliefs that explore the boundaries between visible reality and the subconscious realm. He currently lives and works in a former astronomical observatory in Rabštejn nad Střelou, the smallest historical town in Europe. His distinctive technique involves building up to 20 layers of acrylic paint and manipulating them with hot air to create dimensional reliefs that function as portals into alternative dimensions. His work shows clear inspiration from Hieronymus Bosch, Francis Bacon, Max Ernst, and H.R. Giger.
COLLECTIONS:
His works reside in private and public collections across Europe and Asia:
>>Bremen, Germany (private collection)
>>Bratislava, Slovakia (private collection)
>>Tokyo, Japan (private collection)
>>Multiple private collections throughout Prague and Central Bohemian Region, Czech Republic
>>Hotel Medlov Collection, Czech Republic
>>Observatory Collection, Rabštejn nad Střelou, Czech Republic
