Welcome to AUGUSTIN.

AUGUSTIN is the contemporary European painter and designer. Born in Czechia in 1975, he later made his name also in India and Spain.

AUGUSTIN originally worked as a photographer, filmmaker and graphic designer. His fascination with diversity of humanity and the beauties of the world has gradually been transformed into the work of art, which reflects his own original vision of the world. AUGUSTIN captures ordinary life through the eyes of a man who is always looking for colors among the gray and discovers the better human side. Perhaps that is why his works are popular with various people and find response in completely different world cultures.

The primary AUGUSTIN collection consists of figurative paintings LIFE. Although inspiration from cubism or modern graphic design can be found here, it is the typical handwriting of the author. Flat area colors, the use of elementary geometric shapes and the abbreviation of form are always present in these paintings. Together with comprehensive compositions of figurative themes and the cheerful expressive mood, these are clearly recognizable artworks, always confirmed on the face by the author's original signature.

The later collection POP acknowledges inspiration from the world pop culture. AUGUSTIN chooses here new strong themes and popular motifs of familiar faces, animals, matches, postage stamps or banknotes. The author knows exactly what motives and personalities resonate on the global scene, but he remains purely original. Each of his POP artwork follows a personal experience with people, countries or the environment.

AUGUSTIN philosophy of art partially misses the time in which he lives. He focuses on promoting his paintings and their stories and, as an author, maintains as much privacy as possible. It can be said that his ideal is the success of his work, not his personality. Together with the traditional concept of painting, AUGUSTIN is the essentially modern and at the same time renaissance author, whose artwork is gradually gaining ground on the global scene.
