Over Eva Haskova: born in 1946 in Kladno:

"I don’t wait for inspiration. I seek out inspiration, and sometimes I’m quite stubborn about it. I don´t want to repeat what’s been done before. Everybody asks me why I do buildings. It’s really difficult to explain. It’s not my goal to do architecture as such, but it suits me to use it as a tool for expression of my feelings - what catches my attention, what I’m thinking about. I must feel emotional in order to get to work on something. It’s more about me than about buildings. I also want to create an atmosphere. ​Everything depends on composition in my work. At the same time, I like history. In the past, I couldn’t imagine creating a print without a figure. Only later did I realize that it was possible. It actually benefits the final print if the figure disappears; only the setting remains".

Curator Alena Laufrova: "​Eva Hašková is an established artist with great technical and thematic inventiveness. She creates small-sized as well as large-sized prints, using the etching and aquatint technique. In recent years, she has abandoned her illustrative approach to printamking. Her works have become monumental compositions. Drawing elements or details are constructed as part of the dominant motif – architecture, often conveying the artist‘s own experiences and memories. Hašková’s prints reveal contrasting volumes, lines and fine structures with remarkable use of light and shadow. Her works do not lack in dynamism and inner tension. In Eva Hašková´s prints, architectural motifs have become an authentic symbol of one person´s destiny".​
