The exhibition Landscapes of the Soul is the first purely landscape presentation by the author, who is known more as a figurative artist. We could find more references to the history of landscape painting in Herz. Although the artist is unorthodox in his inspirations, representatives of 19th-century art dominate here. These are far from being just examples from the visual arts; music and literature, especially poetry, also play an equally important role. Richard Wagner's musical dramas have an exceptional position. Herz is fascinated by Wagner's creative approach, deep thought and turbulent emotion; individual Herz works are also parts of a larger narrative, truly monumental murals reflecting his everyday loneliness and isolation.
