Zdenek Tomanek

Tománek comes from Uherské Hradiště, where he was born and studied stone sculpture at the Secondary School of Arts and Crafts. He subsequently graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague and worked there for three years as an assistant in the figurative and monumental sculpture studio, until he returned to his hometown in 1990 as a teacher at the Secondary School of Arts and Crafts. Although it may appear from the above information that Tománek deals exclusively with sculpture, this is not the case. Painting also has its irreplaceable place in his work. In all media that Zdeněk Tománek uses for his work, he demonstrates his sensitivity and sovereignty in the field of artistic creation. His works can be found in the collections of institutions such as the National Gallery in Prague, the Gallery of Fine Arts in Hodonín, the Helsinki Museum, the Stzuki Medalierskie Museum Wroclaw, but also in many private collections around the world.
