Jiří Anderle

Jiří Anderle (born 14 September 1936, in Pavlíkov, Rakovnicko) is a Czech painter and graphic artist. He was of assimilated German ethnic ancestry from paternal side.

Career

In 1961 he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts (painting with Antonín Pelc and graphics with Vladimír Silovský). During 1969-73 he worked as an assistant at the UIA Zdeněk Sklenář and Jiří Trnka.

In dozens of his works, Anderle expresses the human existential anxiety and general timelessness. Recently, his work has moved closer to abstraction.

Anderle has made nearly 100 solo exhibitions throughout the world and his work is represented in some 40 galleries and museums including the New York Metropolitan Museum and Paris's Pompidou Centre.[1]

Awards

In 2006 he was awarded the Medal of Merit (III. degree).[2]

gollark: The current legal system is in my opinion one of the worst aspects of our society, as the law is so large and complicated that one person literally cannot understand it all and they can be imprisoned due to not knowing.
gollark: You don't need to actually *do* anything. The communist revolution is just inevitable...
gollark: After the communist revolution we'll just make people delete eevil capitalist data.
