French artist, originally from Czechoslovakia is born in 1930 at Trebic, in Moravia. He is living in France since 1958.
"Franta is agonizingly concerned about the human condition", as said Thomas M.Messer, Director of the Solomon Guggenheim, New York, both in his nineteen sixties’ paintings, where the individual is crushed in the cogs of the technical dehumanised organisation and his ninety eight - ninety nine's works, when the artist discovers black Africa.
The Massai, particularly inspire him on the theme of the presence of the human form in painting, without removing a latent unease. Grand Larouse Universel.
