Mikuláš Galanda (1895-1938) was a painter and illustrator who was one of the most important pioneers and propagators of Slovak modern art. He was born in Mala Vieska near Turčianske Teplice. From 1914 to 1916 he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Budapest.
In 1922 he enrolled in the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague, where he studied under Professor Vritislav Hugo Brunner. From 1923 to 1927 he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague under August Brömse and Franz Thiele.
From 1924 to 1926, Galanda was the first graphical editor for 'Dav' magazine. He was given approval to teach drawing in 1928, and in that year in Prague he met Maria Boudova, whom he married in 1931. He moved to Bratislava in 1929 and started to teach at an all-girls town school.
From 1929 to 1932 he shared an atelier together with Ľudovít Fulla situated in Bratislava. In this period he joined the arts organisation Umelecka Beseda Slovenska. In autumn of 1930 he travelled to Paris, and had an exhibition in Kraków. In 1933 he became a professor at the School of Handcrafts in Bratislava.
In 1935 he had exhibitions in Siena Elanu and Prague. In 1937 he exhibited his works in Moscow and at the 1937 Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne in Paris, where he won a Silver Medal in the inventive art genre – illustrations and book designs.
In all his work, he strove to formulate the Slovakian artistic modernism on the basis of achievements in the development of European painting. He was inclined towards expressionist and cubist trends, and created his own form of painting on this basis. Early in his career he was oriented toward graphics but later he devoted himself more to painting. His subject matter was domestic, associated with the Slovak landscape and people. He was considered to be a lyric painter of female beauty and charm. His body of work is predominantly melancholic in tone.

CLICK FOR TIPS
When buying artworks figure out what you like. If you're just buying something you love, it's not difficult to make a decision!
If you hang an artwork at home and it doesn’t feel right, move it. Try putting it in different places, and see if it strikes an interesting dialogue with other works on your wall. Smaller artworks often work well near light switches, or hung low over a small piece of furniture like a bedside table.
Grouping works together can be really effective. Test out a group of frames by arranging them on the floor or a table top. If you’re feeling pro, use masking tape to mark out your very own tightly packed grouping!
