Jiří Slíva: Smile, Please! with print

The book Smile, please! presents a selection of works by Jiří Slíva inspired by the personality and ideas of Sigmund Freud. With a light touch, subtle irony and his characteristic artistic humour, the artist explores Freudian themes – the subconscious, dreams, desires and human weaknesses – and translates them into his distinctive style of drawing and graphic art. In addition to Jiří Slíva’s artwork, the book also features examples of his poetry. This publication was produced to accompany an exhibition marking the 170th anniversary of Sigmund Freud’s birth and is aimed at both art lovers and those with an interest in psychology and cartoon humour.

Includes an original print no. 35/40.
