Immortāles

Mehr zum Buch

The motif of timelessness, which allows the past, present, and future to merge, connects two cycles by painter Patrik Hábl, presented in the publication Immortales - Through the Eyes of Time. The cycle "Faces of the Dead and Disappearing" and a series of paintings reinterpreting iconic works of the Old Masters reflect deep personal experiences. For Hábl, these themes are subjects of continual rediscovery and investigation, particularly in the reinterpretations of Old Masters, which he has explored for over thirty years. This publication merges the artist's perspective with critical reflections from art historians. Texts by Patrik Hábl, Lucie Němečková, and Jana Peroutková illuminate the work within its visual, historical, and symbolic contexts.
