Ota Janeček (1919 - 1996) TVARY

In the early 1960s, Ota Janeček abandoned his previous figurative style and, for a certain period, worked with highly abstract forms of shapes, organisms, and cells in the series What the World Is Made Of. The morphology is based on monumentalized forms and layered painting, with the individual layers interpenetrating each other through blurring. The painting Shapes is probably the largest work he ever created. The work comes from the artist's estate and is listed in the inventory of his works.
