Tomáš Petřivý

artist Slovakia

Tomáš Petřivý was a courageous Slovak performance artist and dissident who actively opposed the communist regime in Czechoslovakia during the normalization period. Known for his impactful street performances, such as 'Pilát', he used art to challenge the authoritarian system, symbolizing the complicity of the judiciary in state oppression. Petřivý's life was marked by his involvement in the underground artistic community, his rejection of conformity, and his commitment to human rights, which ultimately led to severe persecution and his untimely death at the age of thirty.
