Anežka Hošková has over the past few years marked herself as one of the most original contemporary artists on the Czech Art scene. She is a member of the A.M.180 collective, a group which organizes exhibitions in its own gallery from some of the most progressive Czech Artists and presents concerts from the international independent music scene. In her work she not only presents her own independent work but also dynamic and communicative collaborations with other artists. Anežka Hošková draws inspiration from a range of contemporary graphics as well as symbols and elements from art historical context.
This mixture has a result in psychedelic compositions, a visually dense wilderness which s held together by an intense stylistic grip. In her work she also manages to transfer this to several mediums, such as painting, watercolour, ink-drawing and mural work, while at the same time maintaining her own distinct style.In her work we are invited into symbolically loaded contemporary fairytales, sharp ornamentation and expressive detail.
