Curatorial context

Lubomír Přibyl is a significant figure in Czech constructivism, and this exhibition offers an extensive look at his artistic journey spanning over sixty years. The display emphasizes the consistent development of his artistic approaches and design principles rooted in geometric abstraction and minimalism, a rarity in the Czech art context. The exhibition traces his evolution from stylized figurative paintings inspired by folk art in the early 1960s to intricate geometric structures created with nets and ropes over plywood boards. These low reliefs, covered in black oil paint or aluminum slices, create a striking monochrome effect with a lively impression due to their surface's dynamic interaction with light and viewer movement. Complementing the reliefs, Přibyl's graphic works are also featured, echoing the stylistic development of his paintings while further accentuating geometric and constructivist foundations. His large black and white prints have garnered international recognition, leading to him receiving the Vladimír Boudník Award for lifetime achievement in 2006.
