The Prodigal Lover of Colours | Stanislav Menšík

PRESS RELEASE | OCTOBER 25, 2018

The exhibition will present the work of Stanislav Menšík (1912-1970), a painter from Svatý Kopeček, an artist of great talent and expressive expression and touching tenderness and fragility. The focus of his work lies in Christian themes, but he also devoted himself to landscaping, still-life and painting of simple stories and pieces of life. The most significant part of his work was created in the war years with the interpretations of the French painter Georges Rouault (1871-1958), which resonated with Menšíks artistic opinion.
