Ota Janeček (1919 - 1996) PORTRAIT OF A GIRL

The later graphic work of the semi-profile of a woman is by the important and multi-talented painter Ota Janeček, whose work was based on the domestic tradition and the legacy of European modernism. From the initial impulses of cubism, lyrical figuralism or French colourism, he turned his attention to his own unmistakable expression. That dimension is the dimension of the leaf.
