Jozef Jankovič (1937–2017), Untitled, 100 x 100 cm, mixed media on panel, original edition dated 2000, signed on the back, Slovakia, abstract work, provenance from a private Dutch collection and offered by Galerie.
Description from the seller
This mixed-media work on panel was created by the Slovak artist Jozef Jankovič (1937-2017), who is regarded as one of the most important post-war artists from Slovakia. From the 1960s onward, his work has centered on the position of the individual within a repressive political system. After his training at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava, he developed his own visual language in which figurative and abstract forms come together. Characteristic are his fragmented, distorted human figures, often trapped in constructions, nets, or precarious balances. Through this he depicted themes of freedom, oppression, and human vulnerability. During the communist Normalization regime, his work was excluded from public exhibitions for years, after which he found alternative paths in architecture, jewelry design, and computer art. His oeuvre testifies to a persistent quest for human dignity and individual freedom.
Dimensions: 100 x 100 cm
Signed and dated on the back
Provenance: Private collection, Netherlands
