Ladislav Novak, born in 1925 in Turnov, was a poet and visual artist. From 1941-1944 he studied at Prague's Charles University. Over the next few years he would meet the leading Czech surrealists, and this was to have a lasting impact on his work. In 1954 he moved to the small Moravian town of Trebic to take up a post teaching Czech language at the local Gymnasium. He was to remain here until his death in 1999.
