Svankmajer was born in Prague(1924), is a Czech surrealist artist.
Called the "alchemist of surrealism", Jan Svankmajer, it not only the author of the animation and the director, but also the writer and the sculptor.
Svankmajer's films are surprising with diversity of applied materials from which autonomous, dark, grotesque and funny world is being built.
Svankmajer is applying ceramics, clay ,food, pieces of rubbish, wood. Equally rich, similarly to devices, a subject matter to which he is referring seems to be Svankmajer. He is touching subjects as taboos, fears, obsession connected with the death and disintegration. His animations are horrifying and entertaining in the same time
