Jiří Netík
sculptor and carver
He belongs to the extraordinary artistic personalities of the turn of the 20th and 21st century. In his work, he can unrepeatably respect and admire the carving craft and, through it, the wood as such. To his monumentality and patience to endure the touches of the human hand, to his peace and awareness of the view over us, the earthlings. He sees in him what our ancestors - ordinary lumberjacks and masters of high art - honored in wood - his unquestionable connection between Earth and heaven. This is clearly the master's path to the impulses of creation - on the one hand, a solid material grounding, on the other hand, the ability to bring robust matter into a fragile spiritual dimension. The thematic support of Netík's work are the eternal themes of the Bible, human destinies and properties, symbols. Among folk artists he is classified as a nativity scene artist, among artists as a mystic. Both are true, but both bring their work high above the mundane.
Born in Brno in 1953, he became a musician, later a restorer and a carver. In its artistic expression, it draws on the traditions of masters of the Middle Ages, Renaissance and Baroque, but as a result it is purely modern and its own, while preserving all the qualities of an honest craftsman and artist.
In the last quarter of a century, he has been fully dedicated to exhibition activities. Since 1982 he has exhibited his work in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Finland and elsewhere. In his smaller, perhaps even relaxing work, he does not forget his original profession as a musician by carving master heads for violin workshops, as well as from time to time he replaces the weight and robustness of wood with the translucent and fragile beauty of glass. The integrity of Master Netík's personality is also in his personal definition. He complements his exhibitions with great, content-wise sculptural work by his wife Martina.
