Slovak painter and graduate of the Faculty of Arts at OSU in Ostrava (Daniel Balabán's studio), Patrik Kriššák is famous for his experimental techniques and analytical approach to painting. His works have been presented at numerous group and solo exhibitions and have received several nominations for prestigious art awards (including the STRABAG Art Award, the Start Point Award, the Critics' Award for Young Painting, and the VÚB Award in the Painting of the Year category). Of the hammer price, 90% will be donated to the non-profit organisation Save-Elephants.
Eight leading visual artists have created a unique collection of paintings inspired by an expedition to Congo, which took place in September 2024 under the auspices of Save-Elephants. The proceeds from these artworks will help develop the educational activities of this Czech non-profit organisation. The works will be presented at the pre-sale exhibition on 3-21 March in the National Theatre's Utility Building B (not in the KODL Gallery).
Thank you to the National Theatre for their cooperation in the exhibition and for providing the exhibition space.
