BEAUTY: Painting--Daniel Pitin

Daniel Pitin, who lives and works in Prague, has a surreal sense running through his work. Many of his compositions seem like moments plucked--out of context--from stage productions, complete with the rough wooden edges of the stage itself visible. There is also an Old World, Eastern European feeling in the grimy-peeling-wallpaper-and-dripping-dirt texture of the canvases, along with what appears to be images of black and white snapshots from decades past.
