By on • ( Leave a comment )

This large-scale exhibition is one of the most extensive Czech sculpture exhibitions in Istanbul to date. “Gates of the Underground” examines our deep connection to the past by immersing us in the landscapes imagined by Vlastimil Berรกnek and Jaroslav Proลกek. Berรกnek creates his unique sculptures in his studio in the Czech Republic. His expression of solid foundations encourages everyone to pause, or at least slow down, and appreciate the best feelings within each of us. Berรกnek is truly a Renaissance personality, excelling as a painter, architect, writer, graphic artist, poet, and designer, with his primary domain remaining sculpture. His simple forms, executed in materials such as glass, represent the perfectionist tendencies that Berรกnek contrasts with ancient 6,500-year-old wood in his later work, showcasing the ultimate expression of his post-minimalist approach to this medium. Berรกnek seeks a unique balance between abstract form, inspired by innermost values, and the irrefutable completeness of his sculptures.

Her art, described as “transmigrational,” was collected by celebrities and institutions alike, reflecting the profound impact of her visionary approach. In her later years, Baron continued to inspire as a mentor at The Studio Door gallery, where her legacy lives on through the many artists she influenced and the timeless beauty she captured in her work.
