Velké století techniky (Great Century of Technology) 1986

"Velké století techniky" (Great Century of Technology) is a 1986 print by Czech artist Jaroslav Kaiser. The artwork features a bold geometric composition of stripes, dots, and swirling lines in black, white, and grey against a blue background. A bright yellow butterfly and red flower add a vibrant contrast to the geometric patterns. The print reflects a style of geometric abstraction often associated with the Art Deco movement, but Kaiser's work also displays the influence of Op Art and the graphic design trends of the 1980s. This combination of styles, along with the recurring theme of technology in his work, creates a unique and intriguing artistic language.
