      Dec. 04, 2024

      MIROSLAV VYSTRČIL 1924 - 2014 - LYING WOMAN

      Est: -

      Around 1959 Miroslav Vystrčil abandoned the classical figure and returned to it only in abstract form. He replaced modelling with metal and welding, descriptive details with clean and simple lines. From 1967 he was a member of the artistic group Concretists Club. From the same period, in connection with commissions for public space, the artist developed a new morphology close to abstract organic structure. The offered work Lying Woman in Beech is part of the collection of the Gallery of Fine Art in Náchod. A reminder of Vystrčil's work, which enriched Czech post-war art history, was made possible through retrospective exhibitions in 2017 in Cheb and 2019 in Náchod. For several decades, the work was part of the artistically rendered garden of the artist's studio in Prague. Ref.: GAVU Cheb, Miroslav Vystrčil. Retrospective, 2017. P. 42. Signed: unsigned

      The plaster torso on a rustic wooden high plinth represents the early work of Miroslav Vystrčil, who belongs to a generation of artists that went through a very complicated period of study and had only a very short time to exhibit. In the 1960s, the Máj 57 group, of which he was a part, significantly enriched the Czech art scene qualitatively, and although Miroslav Vystrčil was not very interested in the presentation and promotion of his work, his contribution to the preservation of the development of Czech art during the toughest times of communist persecution cannot be overlooked.

      The model for the sculpture at the housing estate in Opava is manifested by Vystrčil's tendency to stretch the sculptures into round shapes and round them harmoniously. The lobed shape from 1967 is the beginning of a new wave of work with a golden core - the sun. Vystrčil's generation, strong in numbers and qualities, went through the study in a very complicated period and had only a very short time to exhibit. In the 1960s, the Máj 57 group significantly enriched the Czech art scene qualitatively, and although Miroslav Vystrčil was not very interested in presenting and promoting his work, his contribution to preserving the development of Czech art in the most difficult times of communist persecution cannot be neglected.

      Miroslav Vystrčil was looking for clean, but not dull shapes in his realizations. In the sculpture Struggle he worked on the theme of speed, energy, crystallization of matter due to high pressure, and shows his sense of cubization.

      The exaggerated and abbreviated form of the work The Bull's Head dates back to the period before Vystrčil's work in the May 57 group.

      The curve that permeates the work Recumbent is actually a paraphrase of the author's Lying Act from 1955. The female figure is still the central motif of his work, but it is expressed through a simplified character - a hieroglyph, as is the case of indigenous nations.

      MIROSLAV VYSTRČIL 1924 - 2014 - RECUMBENT NUDE

      Est: -

      The Recumbent nude (also Recumbent) is one of four plaster sculptures that Miroslav Vystrčil presented in May 1957 at the Young Art exhibition. The exhibition became the cradle of the art association Máj 57. The statue of the Recumbent is depicted in period photographs at the head of one of the halls, although it is not in the exhibition catalog. While we observe abstraction in the direction of cubization in Palcr's work and also work of Chlupáč, Miroslav Vystrčil stretches his sculptures into round shapes, models them smoothly and rounds them harmoniously. Vystrčil's generation, strong in number and quality, went through the study in a very complicated period and had only a very short time to exhibit. In the 1960s, the Máj 57 group significantly enriched the Czech art scene qualitatively, and although Miroslav Vystrčil was not very interested in presenting and promoting his work, his contribution to preserving the development of Czech art in the most difficult times of communist persecution cannot be neglected.
