About the Artist
Pasta Oner, with his real name Zdenek Randa, was born in 1979 in Trencin, Czech Republic. As a creative personality, he has been profiled in recent years within the boundaries of classic independent and public gallery operations, in which he combines and at the same time transcends the classic genre categories of pop art and cartoon aesthetics. Despite the fact that at the core of his work he touches on the principles of “post-production”, the work is different against the current dominant currents of post-conceptual strategies in the visual arts; the focus of Pasta’s work is acrylic painting and the creation of hanging paintings, as well as the design of spatial objects, sculptures, installations and the realization of murals in form of large-format paintings in public spaces. The author places the traditional themes of fascination with the world of wealth, sex, faith, luxury brands and consumer beauty into the new and current context of the cyber society, the world of exponentially increasing speed of information transfer and clip aesthetics of everyday experience.
