Branislav Novotný

Branislav Novotný is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Graphics and Other Media, Bratislava Academy of Fine Arts (VŠVU). His work bridges graphic art, sociological theory, and rhythmic discipline, evident in his acclaimed Habitus and Habitát series. He graduated in 2014 under Dušan Kállay and served as a technical assistant before his current role.

Research focuses on sociological concepts like Bourdieu's habitus and urban habitats, combined with mastery of traditional printmaking (line etching) and repetitive drawing techniques.

His artistic practice integrates conceptual rigor with manual precision, merging social critique with formal innovation. Collaborates with Anabela Mollová's band, linking rhythmic discipline to artistic process.
