Of his father\u2019s friends, he was most influenced by the painter &nbsp;Jan Trampota and the poet Ji\u0159\u00ed Mahen. Along with Bohum\u00edr Matal, Kub\u00ed\u010dek co-founded the art group Brno 57. From the start of the 1960s onwards he was one of the most prominent figures of the Brno art scene, which remained the case until the end of his life. As well as painting he was involved in printmaking, drawing, collages, and was also the creator of several sculptures for public space. Kub\u00ed\u010dek was interested in all painterly techniques, including oil tempera and encaustic painting. Like many other artists, he reached a point at which he returned to the very beginning. He sought to discover the primordial basis of art and thus achieve a universal knowledge, which, in his own words, would \u201cupdate ancient values\u201d. \r\nKub\u00ed\u010dek\u2019s family background enabled him to devote himself to painting and drawing from a young age. During the Second World War he studied at the Brno School of Arts and Crafts. In 1943, not yet having reached adulthood, he was a guest at an exhibition organised by the M\u00e1nes Association. His paintings from this period are still strongly linked to tradition and do not deviate from other styles of that time. Under the influence of Trampota he painted classical still lifes and city views of both Brno and its immediate surroundings. It was a trip he took to Italy that enabled him to disengage gradually from conservative themes. Kub\u00ed\u010dek acquired new intellectual motivation and, by gradually abandoning his previous themes, began the search for his own expression and motifs. This release from recurring themes initially represented a dissipation of his energies in various directions: from surrealist collages, such as Ned\u011bln\u00ed \u0161kola flagelantek (1949), to studies of women\u2019s nudes and portraits. Whereas in the previous period it had been the scenery of life that occupied pride of place in his paintings and drawings, now humankind itself came to the foreground, though not for long. The figure gradually disappears from his work over the next few years, to be slowly replaced by another motif that became his lifelong obsession: the artist\u2019s studio. From now on Kub\u00ed\u010dek will deal with the interior of his workplace, with breaks, until his death. As before in his city views or motionless still lifes, Kub\u00ed\u010dek created scenes without actors. In addition, the motif of an empty, melancholic timelessness is associated with the visible absence of the main participant, i.e. the painter himself, who in his own studio becomes merely an observer, a visual recorder of time-lapse material.\r\nFrom the mid-1950s onwards, Kub\u00ed\u010dek increasingly turned to his French models, namely Paul C\u00e9zanne, Henry Matisse and Paul Gauguin. Under the influence of the latter\u2019s work, his thematic scope had already expanded, especially in print sheets in which he was able to free himself up in terms of subject matter. Freer, exotic themes, for example natives in the rainforest or women bathing in a river, allowed him a greater degree of stylisation, e.g. in the prints <i>Lov na tygra \/ Tiger Hunt<\/i>&nbsp;(1938) and&nbsp;<i>Koup\u00e1n\u00ed \/ Bathers<\/i>&nbsp;(1943). Matisse\u2019s influence is most visible at the start of the 1960s in Kub\u00ed\u010dek\u2019s series of monochrome prints depicting movement and based on stylised female figures shown dancing or playing with a ball (1962). Their curvaceous bodies, modelled on Matisse, reduced to an imprint or outline of a silhouette, were gradually replaced by works based on the principle of analytical Cubism, a sphere Kub\u00ed\u010dek had been interested in since the 1950s. His admiration for&nbsp;Bohumil Kubi\u0161ta led him to a technical interest in the decomposition of shapes, expression by means of colour, and the conviction that an image can be independent of the fact that it represents an autonomous reality no matter what we see. Still lifes featuring everyday objects were replaced by paintings with a symbolist subtext, e.g. <i>Z\u00e1ti\u0161\u00ed s&nbsp;modrou hlavou II \/ Still Life with a Blue Head II<\/i>&nbsp;(1953). The basis of Kub\u00ed\u010dek\u2019s later work thus consists of a judicious selection and combination of the formal laws of Fauvism, Impressionism and above all Cubism. He gradually arrived at the premise that the subject matter is no longer the main element. Instead, shape, line and colour naturally become the core and driver of the expressive function of the image. We see this transition in the series <i>Hlavy \/ Heads<\/i>&nbsp;(1962), inspired by African art, in which the subject is still recognisable, but is adapted to the analytical investigation of form and the liberation of the image from its real model in favour of creating an independent reality beyond our sensory experience. In this way it gets closer and closer to being an endeavour to express a transcendental message through painting, as indeed Kub\u00ed\u010dek did in the following years.\r\nKub\u00ed\u010dek\u2019s formal experiments and exploration of painterly possibilities took place in a period during which art groups could once again be established after the repressive 1950s. Cultural and social life began gradually to recover and, encouraged by the political thaw, artists began to uncouple themselves from classical and traditional ways of painting. Since the early 1960s, Kub\u00ed\u010dek had tended to simplify and schematise. Subjects were reduced to curves, while lines were beginning to fade in favour of capturing the fleeting moment of motion, thus becoming abstract and intangible, as in the painting <i>Pohyb ve vod\u011b&nbsp;III \/ Movement in Water III<\/i>&nbsp;(1963). In addition to recording the movement of flow, Kub\u00ed\u010dek was fascinated by light and its physical properties, and this led him to create a series of still lifes culminating in 1969, in which the colour white predominates and, as representative of sharp light, absorbs all objects reducing them to mere outlines of unidentifiable things (<i>Z\u00e1ti\u0161\u00ed se spir\u00e1lou \/ Still Life with Spiral,<\/i>&nbsp;1966\u20131967;&nbsp;<i>Z\u00e1ti\u0161\u00ed V. \/ Still Life V,<\/i>&nbsp;1965). From the latter half of the 1960s onwards, Kub\u00ed\u010dek was also commissioned to design interiors and exteriors of public buildings in a variety of techniques and materials, ranging from mosaic (<i>B\u00fdk \/ Bull<\/i>, 1965\u20131966 Ostrava) and relief (<i>Karafi\u00e1t \/ Carnation<\/i>, 1975\u20131976 Brno), to monumental sculptural works (<i>Vlna \/ Wave<\/i>, 1966\u20131967 Brno).\r\nUnder the influence of events in his personal and social life, from the 1970s onwards Kub\u00ed\u010dek turned increasingly to the art of the past. The mythology and art of antiquity offered him a refuge from stressful events. Images with an existential subtext are overseen by mythical characters such as Laoco\u00f6n and contain within them a symbolic message regarding guilt, punishment, suffering and missed connections. In these paintings Kub\u00ed\u010dek sought both a harmony of colours and an abstract morphology of geometric shapes and lines in an effort to render dynamically the laws of painting. During the 1980s, his style became even more relaxed and he created images featuring dark colours and nervous, even manic, brush strokes. Kub\u00ed\u010dek reflected upon his work theoretically and published a selection of his observations under the title \u201cDramatick\u00fd meziprostor\u201d (Dramatic Interspace) in 2004. The most recent exhibition of his work, which took place in the Central Bohemian Gallery Kutn\u00e1 Hora in 2019, was devoted to his work on paper.","date":2020,"authors":[1902]}],"artworks":[109531,109532,109533,109534,109535,109536,109537,109538,109539,109540,109541,109542,109543,109544,109545,109546,109547,109548,109549,109550,109551,109552,109553,109554,109555,109556,109557,109558,109559,109560,109561,109562,109563,109564,109565,109566,109567,109568,109569,109570,109571],"videos":null},"yoast_head":"<!--
