ADAM VÍT
Adam Vít makes paintings, after many others and certainly before many others. He knows that questions about the meaning of his work can only be answered by action, in this case by image. Each answer is tautologically wrapped in itself, similar to the institutional definition of art. His paintings are contrasting and harmonious. Note the symmetry, repetitions, structures and patterns, abstract motifs, aesthetic relationships, repeated strategies, how the author places the pictorial motifs, sorts the color plans. Focus on the role of randomness, on error, on the author’s casual approach. The paintings do not try to open an imaginary window into a continuous environment, but they are full of views of the final surface of the canvas, of the gesso, they are echoes of some degraded graphic design.
