Today I'm going to post another art cocktail, because in one hand, it's time for a new one, and on the other hand, I have some photos from that amazing exhibition I visited last week and the amount I have is not enough for a full post, so it's going to be a cocktail.
Let's start with the photos from the last exhibition, since so many of you liked the paintings I posted in my previous posts. Friendly reminder, this gallery usually is hosting amateur artist's work, but the artworks I posted in my two previous posts seemed to be high above the amateur level, so I'm suspecting the artists are professionals, if there's such classification in art at all.
You have here two very different paintings, one abstract cityscape, if I can call it that, and the other is a nice (bunch/bouquet? of) flowers. I personally like them both, but if I were to choose, I'd go with the upper one, the cityscape.
But now that I cropped the photo and had a better look at it, I'm not sure anymore. I mean I still like this one, it's an out of the box city abstract (I think), but the other one is lovely too. I'll let you pick one. Let's see who likes what.
Another two paintings, from the same artists. In this case, I think I'd choose the flowers, although I would not hang the painting on my wall.
This is an unedited photo I took at the gallery. This is the best I could do, but I'm going to crop it now, to get a closer view.
Here I had difficulties in choosing my favorite, not because I like them all, but because none of these are close to what I'd like. Maybe here we can conclude that these works were made by amateur artists? No offense intended, they have all my respect, regardless of their status.
We're changing style here, moving from paintings to sculptures. This wooden head was part of an exhibition in the same art gallery, but in 2020. I can't believe I still have photos from 6 years ago, unposted.
I like this sculpture first because of the color of the wood and secondly, because of the mixed approach of the artist. You see, only the face has been sculpted, the back was kind of left intact, or polished at best. the face is also roughly worked.
A clay sculpture, featuring two old village ladies. It's a rough style, compared to those polished sculptures people are used to, but I like how expressive it is. I can see pain, sadness or even desperation there.
Here's one for you, as the usual riddle, as apart from the obvious, I can't figure out what it symbolizes. You tell me.
Another two paintings. The top one is featuring a typical village scene, although the chance to find an old lady living in an abode house like that is slim to none. At least in this part of the country.
The bottom one is my favorite here. Not because of the poor old house, but because of the choice of the artist, regarding colors and brush strokes. Look at those soft, pastel colors and what I always like is how the lovely blue is paired with that amazing green shade.
After inspecting it carefully, was thinking if I'd like it on my wall, if I could move past of the messy, jungle like look and enjoy only the colors, but I can't decide.
Switching style again here. This work is called simultaneously or in the same time, as you like. It looks great, but I think it's too modern or scientific for my taste.
Last, but not least, this one, which in Hungarian has a very funny title, but it's a word game, so I will need to help explain it.
As you can see, it is a pile of faces, masks if you like. The word arcátlan in Hungarian means without face, but it also means cheeky or shameless, in the bad sense of the world. We say this when someone is disrespectful, which means they don't have a face, or something similar to thick skin in English.
To be honest, if you're looking for meaning, this one is the best of all and it's appropriate to use for so many these days, who are changing their face, or face expression shamelessly whenever they have a hidden or obvious interest and can't be trusted. They have a set of masks and using the one they need to get their goal.
This is it for today, let me know which one is your favorite :)
