Kopecký Vladimír (Svojanov 1931)
Planks
red painted panel glass, red lacquer frame, sign. and dat. Kopecký 98, 49.5 x 49.5 x 7.5 cm
After studying at glassmaking secondary schools in Nový Bor and Kamenický Šenov, he graduated from prof. Kaplický’s studio in the VŠUP in Prague in 1956. His first significant success was at EXPO 58 in Brussels, where he received a gold medal. Vladimír Kopecký is not only a glass artist, but also a painter, and both of these skills complement one another. An important part of his work are also glass elements in architecture. These monumental works inspired the author in his more intimate works - surface lines from arranged flat panes of glass, then drawn and sanded with the same principle as the object on offer, Planks. “Their plainness has the peace of a precise order within it, but also the coldness of lonely dehumanization”
