Martin Kana

Martin Káňa lives and works in Prague, Czech republic. Martin Káňa’s work and artistic practice encompasses a wide range of forms, from classic drawings to sculptures, objects, paintings, assemblages, and installations. He has long been fascinated by geopolitical themes which he comments on in his works with visual, often pop exaggeration and a critical message.
Martin Káňa’s range of interest is thematically vast, yet the aviation, military arsenal, super-humans or cyborgs, mass-controlled society, historical events and memories of the future dominate the run. His Creation is a carefully circumscribed territory which declares the author’s ability to undermine established considerations about historical and contemporary geopolitical systems and the possibilities of both clash and the end of civilization.
