JIŘÍ JOHN 1923 - 1972 - LEAVES
Est: -
The extensive wall work designed by Jiří John was created for the building of the Czechoslovak Embassy in Stockholm where it was installed in 1972. It is based on a graphic work from 1966 entitled Leaves, and similarly structured vegetation structures are represented in the thematic unit Leaves from 1970 and Grass from 1971 and 1972, where we find the last prints by Jiří John.The representative architecture, interior design and artistic decoration are considered the pinnacle of Czechoslovak brutalist "Gesamtkunswerk" of the post-war era. All the realisations that emerged from these competitions were exceptional in their complex artistic programme. Representative architecture of this type was financially supported by the state, and thanks to the considerable resources, the buildings could be realized in high quality, including custom-designed furnishings and artworks. Jiří John is considered a leading representative of the Czech art scene of the 1960s. His mature artistic expression blended the influence of nature, matter and light. Published: Zemina, J.: John.

JIŘÍ JOHN 1923 - 1972 - A HIBERNATION
Est: -
The key element of Jiří John was the land. He was looking for elementary forms, natural processes, the cycle of falling asleep and resurrection. The fate of the landscape laid bare in a single dormant germ of life becomes a small sliver of hope in the bleak winter. The almost monochromatic composition Hibernation with undulations simulating soil modeling and a small vegetal island tries to touch the metaphysical absolute. An immortal beetle that seemingly dies in the cold comes alive at the first rays of light. Jiří Šetlík, from whose collection the work comes, described it as follows: "This is the strange beetle that digs in the layers of the earth, because it survived the ice flow and is a sign of the constant renewal of life." Published in: Zemina, J.: Jiří John. Arbor Vitae, 2019. p. 245 Šetlík, J., Vrba, T.: Jiří Šetlík: They accompany me through life. Museum of Art and Design Benešov, 2019. pp. 22 - 25, 30 Technique: oil on canvas, Signed: sign. lower right: J. John 69

JIŘÍ JOHN 1923 - 1972 - ROCK FALLING ON A ROSE
Est: -
Jiří John is considered a leading representative of the Czech art scene of the sixties of the 20th century. His mature artistic expression combined the effects of nature, matter and light. A stone falling on a rose is the author's statement about the occupation of 1968. Symbolic expression was not typical for him, but in this case he felt the need to express his wounded feelings. Published: Šetlík, J., Vrba, T.: Jiří Šetlík: They accompany me through life. Museum of Art and Design Benešov, 2019. pp. 85, 91. Technique: drypoint on paper, Signed: sign. lower right: J.J. 68
