Marek Slavik

I am a Czech painter, born in Prague in 1982. I studied art at High school and at Academy Of Fine Arts in Prague in the studio of classical oil paintings. I am deeply focused on realistic oil painting and my previous major paintings depicted mainly landscapes and the human figure with expressive gestures reflecting life and the world in modern society. Currently, I create realistic paintings using abstractly shaped masses, which reflect life and reality in a wider context, leaving space for viewers interpretation.
