Jan Vít

*1950

Jan Vít was originally a soloist at the Ladislav Fialka´s pantomime company at Divadlo na Zábradlí and at Černé Divadlo Jiřího Srnce. He studied sculpture with the academic sculptor B. Proksová, the academic sculptor M. Havlíčková and the academic sculptor J. Sejk. He is a member of Nové sdružení pražských umělců (the New Association of Prague Artists) which was founded by the painter Jiří Načeradský in 1992. Jan passed through a period of portraits as well as a period of realistic figures. His theatrical and dancing experience and his intimate familiarity with topics of the New Testament are reflected in his latest sculptures. Jan´s creativity oscillates between expressive and geometric composition, between play and design. An abstract minimalistic shape of dynamic figure is characteristic in his current works. He emphasizes clarity of lines, balance and, in recent years, Jan has profiled his unmistakeable personal style with a powerful aesthetic charge. Jan Vít has presented his works in an array of exhibitions, and his sculptures are represented in private collections and galleries at home as well as abroad. He lives and works in Prague.
