Martin Stejskal (born 19 February 1944, pronounced: stei-skal) is a Czech painter, graphic artist, translator, occasional poet, essayist, and author of texts and books dealing with different aspects of Hermeticism.

Career[edit]

Surrvirtuality

Stejskal had decisive encounters with poet Karel Šebek (1963) and hermetist Theofanus Abba (1972). Šebek was an important poet from the Czech Surrealists circle from the 1960s. He disappeared in 2004. Theofanus Abba (the civic name of Josef Louda) was a Czech hermetic.

Since 1968 he has worked with Czech and Slovak surrealists.[1] Stejskal authored interpretation methods, for instance contourages and phased illusions. He creates computer graphics (so-called digitages) and original computer animations. He lives in Prague.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
