Product detailed description

Telegraphic. You can have a unique piece of art with real artistic value in your home. The serigraph by Czech artist Jakub Janovský, whose work you may have seen at the Game Owner exhibition, depicts a pyramid structure built from cards, which may symbolize fragility, balance, and instability. The artist emphasized the uniqueness of each piece by hand-painting the print, resulting in individual prints that vary in color and shade.

The printing technique of serigraphy (or screen printing) consists of a process in which ink is pushed through a fine mesh onto the printing surface. The technique first appeared more than a thousand years ago in China, but gained its greatest popularity during the Pop Art period, when artists such as Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein made it famous. Telegraphics offer you a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with the work of contemporary artists. Each print in this limited edition reflects the unique approach and personal vision of its creator. Explore the full range of telegraphics and get a piece of an inspiring world with increasing artistic value to take home with you.

Jakub Janovský (*1984) explores personal and collective memory, and his work often bears the hallmarks of the past, particularly from the socialist period in which the artist grew up. His work features figures and symbols that function as archetypes, conveying to the audience their own experience and thus giving space for the reinterpretation of historical and contemporary themes. His work is characterised by its playfulness and use of different media, from painting and drawing to collage, sculpture, installation and video. This diversity allows Janovsky to experiment with different approaches, providing him with unlimited possibilities for visually expressing themes such as memory, identity and collective history.
