GUEST
JAKUB REKEN
Maliarsky výskum Jakuba Rekena (1986) sa aktuálne sústreďuje na remediáciu príbehov sakrálneho umenia, pop-kultúry, hracích automatov, či sci-fi scenérií (od ranokresťanských ikon po počítačové hry a ikonky). Kombinovaním mikropríbehov vytvára bohaté obrazové vízie, ktoré pritom navodzujú „breugelovskú“ poetiku nostalgického starého sveta. V ňom sa ,,predháňajú“ okrídlené oči, rybie vrchy, modely krajín, fraktálov či utopických architektúr. Ide o elementy vyprodukované autorským samplovaním, remixom, novou postprodukciou a spätnou archeologickou revíziou „ikonoklonu“.

Painting research of Jakub Reken (1986) currently focuses on the remediation of stories of sacred art, pop culture, gaming machines, and sci-fi sceneries (from early Christian icons to computer games and icons). By combining micro-stories, he creates rich pictorial visions, which evoke the “Breugel” poetics of the nostalgic old world. Winged eyes, fish hills, models of landscapes, fractals or utopian architectures are “racing” in it. These elements are produced by the author’s sampling, remix, new post-production and reverse archaeological revision of the “iconoclon”.
