<< BRANISLAV KROPILAK Born in Slovakia, Branislav spent most of his childhood in Belgium, travelling a lot with his parents from an early age. He graduated at the Private Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava and then spent some years working for the top creative agencies in Prague. The main theme of his work is investigating the intimate relationship between humans and technology. He is inspired by industrial design, architecture and urbanism. The utopian bent of his work with its appreciation of geometry and perspective already earned him a solid base of collectors. In 2009, Branislav won the 2nd prize at the Sony World Photography Awards in Cannes. solo exhibitions 2009 Design Factory gallery in Bratislava, Slovakia Commissaires gallery in Montreal, Canada 2008 Nordic Artworks gallery in London, UK La Camara Lucida gallery in Barcelona, Spain 2007 Artchimboldi gallery in Barcelona, Spain group exhibitions 2010 EWZ selection festival in Zurich, Switzerland Caprice Horn gallery in Berlin, Germany Art Work Space gallery in London, UK Petronas gallery in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 2009 Aperture gallery in New York, USA Centro de la Imagen in Mexico City, Mexico Evento Biennale in Bordeaux, France Ardel Gallery of Modern Art in Bangkok, Thailand Esther Woerdehoff gallery in Paris, France Edward Day gallery in Toronto, Canada Gallery 21 in Tokyo, Japan The Hong Kong Art Fair in Hong Kong, China EDGE gallery in Hong Kong, China The London Art Fair in London, UK Palais des Festivals in Cannes, France 2008 Art London Art Fair in London, UK The Glasgow Art Fair in Glasgow, UK AAF Contemporary Art Fair in London, UK Contemporary5 show in Boulder, USA The London Art Fair in London, UK 2007 Festival of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, Spain Nordic Artworks gallery in London, UK The Brno House of Art in Brno, Czech Republic Contemporary5 show in Los Angeles, USA The Glasgow Art Fair in Glasgow, UK AAF Contemporary Art Fair in London, UK La Camara Lucida gallery in Barcelona, Spain 2006 Fotonauta gallery in Barcelona, Spain Central European House of Photography in Bratislava, Slovakia Fiducia gallery in Ostrava, Czech Republic Moon in the Daytime gallery in Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic 2005 The Moravian gallery in Brno, Czech Republic
