Jiri Hauschka Czech, b. 1965 represented by GFT in Switzerland

Jiří Hauschka, born in Šumperk, Czech Republic, in 1965, is an acclaimed painter whose work balances abstraction and magic realism. A member of the international Stuckist movement, Hauschka lives and works in Prague. His paintings, featured in significant collections like the National Gallery in Prague and numerous private collections worldwide, explore the relationship between nature, humanity, and urban spaces through a unique visual language.

Hauschka’s work is defined by his dynamic use of fluid forms, symbolic colours, and contrasting textures. His paintings often depict mystical natural landscapes—forests, mists, and rural atmospheres—juxtaposed with urban environments imbued with layered histories. “Reality is transformed by the painter’s narration into layered storytelling, where the artist’s memory intersperses with new experiences, desires, and emotional turbulences,” writes Martin Dostál.

His art delves into the symbiosis between humanity and the natural world, reflecting a fascination with spaces that carry both history and personal narratives. Frequently incorporating human figures, Hauschka creates compositions that feel both intimate and universal. Inspired by the Canadian painter Tom Thomson and early 20th-century colour symbolism, Hauschka’s works evoke a timeless quality while remaining deeply contemporary.
Reflecting on his process, Hauschka notes, “I am like a fascinated pilgrim, and painting is the best way to show what the world of my pilgrimage looks like.”

Edward Lucie-Smith has described Hauschka as “one of the most interesting artists to have emerged in the Czech Republic during the quarter-century that has followed the fall of the Communist regime.”
