Markéta Bábková

Markéta Bábková (b. 1993) absorbed in 2013-2019 AVU in Prague (atelier doc. Michael Rittstein and Josef Bolf). 


The author is one of the strong emerging generations of painters who reflect on the new and otherwise personal relationship to the substantiveness, close objects and the environment in which they live or move (usually emphasis on interiors). Objects and spaces are unified in a special way. As if they had grown. Often there are processes of grouping and regrouping, disturbing, disappearance, etc. We are able to identify something as viewers, something appears only in a hint, something remains shrouded in a multiplication secret. The reality plunges into a kind of vague memory that dissolves the clarity and strength seen in the states of melancholic deckup and soft contemplation.

The winner of the August Sympathy Award, the 14th year of the Critics Award for Young Painting 2021 and has been exhibiting prestigious symposiums for over 10 years in the key Czech galleries.
