Since the early 1950ies Stanislav Kolíbal (* 1925) has created a sculptural and graphic oeuvre that has taken a strong conceptual position within the styles of Minimal Art and Arte Povera through its methodical reduction to simple structures and materials. From 1990 until 1993, Kolíbal was a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague. Stanislav Kolíbal, who is living in Prague, was already invited to many important international exhibitions in his early years and therefore strengthened his artistic reputation even outside his home country.
