Jiri Maska

​

Jiří Máška, born in 1951 in the Czech Republic, displayed artistic talent from a young age. He was mentored by local painters, including Říhánek and Rejžek, who taught him the fundamentals of art.

During the Communist regime, Máška and his friends formed an art group that challenged the government's censorship. Their exhibitions were often closed down and they faced police harassment. To continue his artistic expression, Máška immigrated to the United States.

In the United States, Máška's paintings gained recognition. He exhibited in prestigious galleries and received positive reviews from art critics. His work was praised for its unique style, blending elements of Eastern and Western cultures.

After the fall of Communism, Máška returned to the Czech Republic but eventually left again due to political corruption. He now lives on the island of Roatan, Honduras, where he continues to create art and share his unique perspective with the world.
