Jakub Hosek
Fake Empire

The influence of the subculture, the connection with Jakub Hošeks Arbeiten, is of course determined, not found in its theme or its expressions, so many more in the art as this set. So the Hošek work with a very good technique, the traditional Maltechnik intergrabt. Bedeutet Malerei für gewöhnlich, dass der Künstler durch seinen personaln Pinselstrich und die ihm eigne Bildsprache mit dem Betrachter kommuniziert, so verzichtet Jakub Hošek durch den unpersonnichen Ininsatz von ausgeschnitten Diechwesztenn Schablonen. The pictures are self-contained on the rand of the installation, are in the windows of the gallery, stand on the wall or lie down on the floor. In addition to their research in traditional painting, this work is not much better in terms of resolution, they are much more natural in nature.

Find different styles and influences in Jakub Hošeks Arbeiten. Through the over-the-top Ubermalen of hand-cut patterns on the line with acrylic paint with its acrylics, a working picture language is spoken of in a comic style. Es ist genau dieser Geist des Post-Teenpop, der Hošeks stark farbige, durch seine collagenartigen Comicelemente bewusst naiv virkende Malerei stilni, cool und tehnisch perfekt macht. The title and lyrics in their pictures are mainly based on punk and punk music, which is very good.
