JIŘÍ HAUSCHKA
*1965 Sumperk (CZ)

Jiří Hauschka is a Czech painter born in Sumperk, Czechia. He currently lives and works in Prague.


Jiri Hauschka turns to this type of painting method that utilizes colours and symbolic connotations, prevalent at the turn of the 20th century – he positions himself in that period next to the Canadian painter Tom Thomson (1877–1917) – and used by contemporary painters. Reality is transformed by the painter‘s narration into layered storytelling, where the artist’s memory is interspersed with new experiences, views, desires and emotional turbulences.


In the case of Jiri Hauschka, we find ourselves in the wilderness of painter nostalgia, where we look for the conceptual person, and in urban civilization, which has barely any options left and where we can therefore feel and see the colours of wilderness.
