- Welcome to Jelení Gallery.00:00:02.993
- 00:00:02.993

- Tomáš Pilař: "Dedicated to Pavel Nešleha" Authors:00:00:10.555
- 00:00:10.555
- Most of the works are landscapes, right?00:00:13.775
- 00:00:13.775
- Of course, I should know and we were told before, but...00:00:15.413
- 00:00:15.413
- Some people paint outdoors, some people paint at home.00:00:20.575
- 00:00:20.575
- What about you?00:00:23.063
- 00:00:23.063
- Well, I like to paint outdoors.00:00:24.860
- 00:00:24.860
- I used to paint inside,00:00:30.084
- 00:00:30.084
- but then I realized00:00:34.665
- 00:00:34.665
- that when you're outdoors, there can be a sudden turnover.00:00:40.418
- 00:00:40.418
- At home, things are in order00:00:45.406
- 00:00:45.406
- that, for me, is determined by the painting,00:00:47.731
- 00:00:47.731
- whereas outdoors, things around you push you in a certain way00:00:53.151
- 00:00:53.151
- to reflect them in the painting.00:01:00.051
- 00:01:00.051
- Is it some particular landscape that you paint?00:01:05.415
- 00:01:05.415
- It's close to Podlažice, near Chrudim.00:01:11.248
- 00:01:11.248
- I used to go there as a child, then I stopped for many years00:01:18.611
- 00:01:18.611
- and now I live there.00:01:24.733
- 00:01:24.733
- So my works are based on that region.00:01:28.081
- 00:01:28.081
- As I walk with my canvas in the countryside,00:01:33.237
- 00:01:33.237
- I try to understand the landscape I'm walking through00:01:35.940
- 00:01:35.940
- and the ongoing actions.00:01:42.998
- 00:01:42.998
- I know I'm trying to grasp something very fragile.00:01:48.547
- 00:01:48.547
- The landscape changes from day to day.00:01:55.373
- 00:01:55.373
- There are some places of particular interest to me00:01:59.481
- 00:01:59.481
- but I don't really know why, why this place of all places.00:02:04.860
- 00:02:04.860
- By means of painting I can approach such places00:02:14.779
- 00:02:14.779
- in a different way than if I just came there.00:02:20.561
- 00:02:20.561
- With a piece of paper or a canvas,00:02:25.002
- 00:02:25.002
- you pay a different kind of attention00:02:29.199
- 00:02:29.199
- to the place or to the scene in general.00:02:33.545
- 00:02:33.545
- I dedicated the exhibition to Pavel Nešleha.00:02:39.346
- 00:02:39.346
- When I came to the Academy,00:02:44.649
- 00:02:44.649
- I didn't know him a lot00:02:46.070
- 00:02:46.070
- and my feelings towards his work have always been quite ambivalent.00:02:55.209
- 00:02:55.209
- However,00:03:04.754
- 00:03:04.754
- he had a strong influence on all of us.00:03:09.102
- 00:03:09.102
- After much thinking about a name for the exhibition,00:03:18.991
- 00:03:18.991
- I came up with a name that is not a name at all,00:03:26.441
- 00:03:26.441
- but the dedication seemed quite natural to me.00:03:30.835
- 00:03:30.835
- I think Pavel Nešleha deserves to be remembered.00:03:39.104
