Evanescent, surreal paintings by a central figure of Czech
postmodernism, Tomás Císarovský
Known for his eerie use of color, Czech painter Tomás Císarovský (born
1962) integrates contemporary themes and styles into the history of
Western painting, blending historically codified images with
contemporary approaches. Tradition Is a Part of the Present gathers 30
years of Císarovský's brightly colored, whimsical paintings.
