Pavel Lacko

Painter of Life in Kovačica

His art was simple but deeply emotional; he painted people and scenes from everyday life in Kovačica. Speaking about ordinary moments, daily struggles, and the joy of village life in his portraits. In genre paintings, there was no room for pretending; only sincere dedication to representing the real world. Art was not just a hobby but a way of communicating with the world, a way that he noted down of what has past before his eyes. Unfortunately, the artistic life of Pavel Lacko was short, but his paintings remain as the witness of the life that he presented.
