Jakub Choma / Zahorian & Van Espen at Art Cologne 2024

The gallery Zahorian & Van Espen (Bratislava) is presenting works by Jakub Choma in the New Positions sector at Art Cologne 2024. In this video, Jakub Choma leads us on a tour of his booth.

Jacub Choma (born 1995, Slovakia) graduated in 2023 from the painting studio of Jiří Černický and Michal Novotný at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague. Already during his studies, he was awarded the Jindřich Chalupecký Award for 2020, the most prestigious Czech art prize for emerging artists. Mixing diverse media such as painting, assemblage, sculpture, sound, and video, he creates complex installations addressing our bodily existence within the present digital infrastructure. Choma exhibits prolifically both at home and abroad.

Since 1980, New Positions has given young artists the unique opportunity to showcase their works in special 25-square-metre spaces, directly next to their representing gallery stands. This is the chance to connect with the next generation of artists and get acquainted with their creative process. Jakub Choma / Zahorian & Van Espen at Art Cologne 2024.
