Adéla Matasová

Adéla Matasová (born 26 July 1940, in Prague) is a Czech sculptor, multimedia artist[1] and professor at the Art Institute.

In 1958 she started studies at the Department of monumental painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague (headed by prof. V. Sychra) and graduated in 1964.

Since 1985, she has been using crude unprocessed flax paper mass for sculptural projects, where objects often hanged freely in space.

The latter artistic activity finally prevailed and led to various installations defining space by the plastic shapes and sound.

In 1990, she was appointed a professor at the Department of alternative techniques at the Academy of Applied Arts in Prague [1](till 2003).
