Zdenìk Sýkora
By Tomáš Vlček For the Post Known for abstract painting and his pioneering use of computers, Zdeněk Sýkora died of natural causes July 12 at the age of 91. Now with artwork on display at some of contemporary art's most high-profile venues, including the Centre Pompidou in Paris and Vienna's Museum of Modern Art (MUMOK), Sýkora came from humble beginnings in the town of Louny, west Bohemia, where he was born, lived all his life and died. For all of the 1950s, Sýkora traveled with his easel through the countryside near his home, trying to capture his feelings from nature through painting.
