Jaro Jelenek
"to hold up the mirror to the people"
01.07.1997 - 31.08.1997
Anyone looking at the highly poster-like pictures of the artist Jaro Jelenek who lives in Bratislava (Slovakia) recognises the irony with which scenes from real life are humorously translated into art. True to the saying "to hold up the mirror to the people", one quickly recognises after some initial amusement that "the people" includes oneself and that ludicrous appearances have become the accustomed reality of every-day life. Jaro Jelenek says about his work: "My pictures deal in the yearnings, needs, stupidities and offences which determine man's current image."
