1 EXhibition of students paintings from the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague PAINTING STUDIO III. professor Michael Rittstein 29 October 1 November, 2014 The exhibition is for sale

2 PRESENTATION OF THE ATELIERS At the Atelier, we would like to advance natural painting talent in the form of open dialogue between pedagogue and student. At the same time emphasis is placed on voracious industriousness, authenticity and a longing for cognizance. The objective is to develop an individual system of uncovering the surrounding reality without having the student resign their own destiny or inspiration. MICHAEL RITTSTEIN Tractor and mice running on cat food 150 x 180 cm / 2013 MICHAEL RITTSTEIN Born in Prague.
