About the author:
Jan Kanyza (*1947) is a Czech actor and artist. He studied at DAMU in Prague under Professor Miloš Nedbal and primarily worked as an actor throughout his life.
He has been involved in visual arts since the 1970s. For him, painting represents a form of artistic expression and a parallel world to theater and film. In addition to painting and graphic arts, he occasionally works with ceramics. He is a co-founder of the art group Tolerance 95 and a member of the Syndicate of Visual Artists.
His painting style oscillates between expressive abstraction and lyrical compositions with figurative elements. He primarily uses acrylic and mixed media. He draws inspiration from music, nature, and inner experiences.
He regularly exhibits his works in galleries in the Czech Republic and abroad – including France, Germany, Switzerland, and the USA. He lives and works alternately in Prague and Provence.
