Tax Landscape Surée

For Lubo Kristek, it is typical to exceed or dissolve limits, as well as examining tresholds and critical points. In his artworks focused on the treshold of the bearable, we can find a red-and-white dot-and-dash line.The background of his collage Tax Landscape Surée or the Same Frequencies of Financial-Geographic Biotope after Seventy-One Years consists of the official documents of the Mrs. Bißle‘s bankruptcy who lived in the house before Kristek. He found them during reconstruction between the boards of the dropped ceiling.In his work, the artist ponders on existential pressure and its bearability for an individual.He identifies himself with her story, putting his hair and miniportrait into the collage. Also historical evidence, old Reich’s notes, can be found in the artwork. Kristek calls his collages involving significant papers (official, medical, etc.) ‘documents’.
