reminiscence Painting

Rudolf Janák (1985) I have studied at Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, studio of Michael Rittstein. Art is very unattached game. Structures, colors, forms and knowledge create endless cycle of life. My world is in my paintings. My work always comes out of a simple statement, that the existence of “human – nature” conflict is the consequence of human’s moral failure. Hence the land and its space became the main basis and “lynchpin” of my creative work. This land is constantly transformed by human hands and it is permanently withdrawing from his power needs. Situations, pictured in real or imagined environment of this land, may take place on the eve of forthcoming apocalypse or right after it. My imagination, in ultimate conception, characterizes my own internal need. The content of my paintings is always about human, but without human. This release of its representation – except of some paintings, on which the figure appears - is always conscious.
