IVANA ŠRÁMKOVÁ (1960 - )

Glass

Her sculptures are distillations of basic figurative forms, both animal and human.  Reduced to their essence each is described in a language of simple geometric symbols.  What makes them extraordinary is Šrámková’s ability to give them just enough of the archetypal to make them identifiable, just enough gesture to endow them with wit, and just enough reference to make them universal.   

 

She has had solo exhibitions at home and abroad, including a solo exhibition entitled 'I Can't Stop' at the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art, the premier contemporary art centre in Prague, Czech Republic, in 2011, as well as exhibitions at the National Gallery and the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Corning Museum of Glass, New York, and the Musée d'Art Moderne de Lausanne, Switzerland.
