I am a 2003 graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, where I studied restoration of paintings, polychromic sculptures and wall paintings.

I received an “A“ degree licence, which allows me to work for the National Gallery. Since graduation I have been practicing restoration in Prague. My
work to date has included the restoration of baroque and gothic wall paintings, paintings on canvas (baroque and 19th century) and renaissance altar painted on wooden board.

I am looking for a temporary position in an English speaking country where I could offer my skills and expand my range of experience. I would be grateful for any consideration you might give me for a position with your organization, or for any advice you could offer concerning other
possibilities. I have spent time already in the U.S; I spent a few months in New York three years ago on a student „ work and travel“ program. A similar arrangement, for a similar short period or longer, would interest me.

In the case you’re interested I can send you photos of examples of the kind of work I have been doing. I can also send further photodocumentation if you would like to see additional evidence of my work.
