David Hanvald
was born on December 1, 1980 in Liberec. Between 2003 and 2009, he studied at Prague’s Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design at the painting studio of Stanislav Diviš. He lives and works in Liberec, and is a member of the Obr group of painters. David Hanvald constructs his paintings on the basis of certain patterns while he is just as interested in their construction as he is in working with paint, in the intervention of coincidence, a personal gesture and the tension between artistic spontaneity and the “scientific” approach. Recently, he’s taken on the re-interpretation of works by modernist artists such as the minimalist furniture by Donald Judd, some of Hugo Demartini’s performances and even his own chair.
