OTTO ZITKO

LokoMotiveThe expressive ductus of the gestural-abstract works by the painter and draftsman Otto Zitko resemble those of Jackson Pollock while going beyond the easel painting.
They integrate and transform bodies and spaces. The artists energy becomes condensed in a linear movement with which he both dynamically and ingeniously, and without interruption, covers a given medium - in this case a train - with a vibrating, calligraphic network. It is indicative of Otto Zitkos temperament that he seeks to totally possess things so as to ultimately lend them transcendence.
