Our events ...

WELCOME

The idea of bringing Hungarian and European artwork into the UK came when I visited a gallery in Budapest, Hungary where I purchased a painting. This opened my eyes that Hungary has a vibrant, exciting and talented art scene and these emerging and established artists should be given an opportunity to be shown to a wider audience. At the beginning I started with 2 artists but since then our team has grown and growing all the time. Artists coming to me being interested in this opportunity showing their artwork in the UK too. These artists are known in their close and wider community , regularly exhibiting in their own country, Our aim is to find and promote new Hungarian and European artists and their artwork in the UK.

Please look at our Gallery and discover yourself!

Lorand SIPOS

My ars poetics: ,,I see it so, that our age, very much showed what should do, very much said, very material and very noisy.

Gyorgyi BORS

 

In my creative work I rarely use live image, photo, or sketch.

I like my paintings to be about a feeling, a thought, an impression, a human trait. I express my opinion on the ups and downs of universal human existence.

I tried some techniques and materials, but the oil painting is what I like best.

I try to elevate experiences, feelings and thoughts to a universal level with the tools of painting, which almost all of us know or have already experienced in some form.

I sent my works to national and international competitions with positive, appreciative feedback.

The style of my paintings runs on two threads, geometric and lyrical abstract, with surrealistic features here and there, which sometimes unite in my art.

 

Don’t Speak

 

My name is Don’t Speak. I don’t need to tell you who I am.

Through my pictures, I present the woman inside me, who has strong ,independent, leadership skills.

And the kind of pictures that come out of me, they are me. And through them, the submission within me is expressed, as well as the dominance to life.

Subordination is one of the most common sex fantasies, especially amongst dominant, strong women who hold a high position or have a job with big responsibilities. Rape fantasy is not uncommon either, which of course does not mean that someone really wants it . Rather it suggests that you want to finally hand over the leadership to someone else.

When a woman can give up control and delegate responsibility, it can mean relief and release from the routine, where she must always initiate and direct.

 

Bela BALOG

 

Bela Balog lives and works in Budapest, Hungary. He considers himself primarily as a digital artist of deconstructivism and futurism.  He mixes a lot of architectural elements into his digital works. These create a sense of chaotic structure, increasing the dynamism of the work. What also draws the audience to decipher these images are the recognizable figures are silhouettes. In the future, he wants to follow this imagined path and create more new series in the same style.

There is a strong visual language throughout the whole artworks that allows these pieces to be read as a timeline. Within each individual work there are multiple scenes layered into each other and showcase a passage of time that is expanded upon as we look throughout the entire series. Each piece feels like we are looking around an environment that is active and lively. When looked at together, we begin to see a more complete experience of life from the views inside and outside an environment. Interestingly a lot of the architectural elements are very reminiscent of work of deconstructivism and futurism.

Eva PADOS

 

I was born in Budapest in 1954. I think I could have brought some kind of artistic heritage from somewhere a long time ago, which can now be traced through my children and grandchildren.

I went to a music elementary school, where my drawing teacher was Zoltán Ábrán, a painter. I could learn very good basics from him,  even though i haven’t become aware of these things back then

When my grandchildren were born 20 years ago, I started drawing again, for their sake. Since the firstborn decided at 3 years old to become a graphic artist, I tried to keep up with her in the drawing. For this, however, I needed to take drawing more seriously.

My first adulthood teacher was Vanda Huminilowicz, who developed my drawing skills, creativity, and the knowledge of different techniques. I still come back to her today, for help and guidance.

In his courses I could learn the basics of acrylic and oil painting, and since then I can continuously develop and learn alongside him.
