Profile

František Skála

Jindřich Chalupecký Award

František Skála (*1956) je sochař, malíř, ilustrátor, hudebník a performer, jedna z nejvýraznějších osobností české výtvarné scény posledních čtyřiceti let. V roce 1987 spoluzaložil legendární skupinu Tvrdohlaví, v roce 1991 získal Cenu Jindřicha Chalupeckého a o dva roky později reprezentoval Českou republiku na Benátském bienále. Jeho retrospektivy v Galerii Rudolfinum (2004) a v Jízdárně Národní galerie (2017) patřily k nejnavštěvovanějším přehlídkám současného umění své doby. Skálova díla jsou zastoupena ve sbírkách Národní galerie Praha, Moravské galerie v Brně i Museum of Contemporary Arts v Sydney.

About the work

František Skála for 100pcs

All the Beauties of the World represents a quieter and more intimate side of Skála's work. A naked woman sits before an open window, gazing at the sea, with sunlight streaming inside. Skála himself describes the painting as an ideal vision of a "magical moment, one of the rarest in life," furthermore with a view of the sea, which the artist still misses.
