Albín Brunovský (1935 - 1997) EVA PRIMA PANDORA

Eva Prima Pandora is the subject of an originally Renaissance work from 1550. Albín Brunovský opens an imaginary box woven perhaps from the branches of the tree of knowledge and lets out Eve - the first Pandora. Sparks fly from her hands that irrevocably change the world, and although she could regret her action, she doesn't. He stares straight ahead with a mesmerizing unruffled gaze and leaves humanity to its fate. Albín Brunovský did not accept the composition of modern paintings, and he maintained that the art object should be rare and beautiful. The beautiful and sophisticated form does not weaken the artistic message of the image, but rather underlines its communicativeness, forcing the viewer to approach and perceive how the blades of grass wave and what is happening in the other layers of the composition.
