Argomall brings Radim Kacer's art to your iPhone

Of all the art forms, abstract painting is said to touch a wide spectrum of emotions, simply because it does not present a rigidly defined set of images, but leaves its interpretation up to the beholder. Renowned Czech abstract artist and designer, Radim Kacer, ponders: “Abstract painting doesn't mean anything; it’s supposed to only evoke imagination. It's like a mirror for our mind. When you observe pure abstract space and calm your mind, you start seeing your own thoughts on a conscious and subconscious level. It's like dreaming and being awake at the same time.
