There's a gallery, one of the coolest on my list, that I haven't visit this year at all. It's an underground parking lot turned into an art gallery, but also used for events. It's not on my usual route, so I've been watching the local news to see when they have one, but either I've done a crappy job, or they haven't had any exhibitions, but I bet it's the first one.
Anyway, they have a huge room, many walls to fill with whatever they are exhibiting, so there's always a lot of photos left to post, which is why today I'm posting some photos of last year.
It was a solo exhibition of Edith Vári Váncza, a very talented artist that has definitely managed to bring a type of art to us, that we've never seen before.
This photo should give you an idea of what you're about to see.
Cave Wall (2025), acrylic on canvas
This painting is deviating a bit from the usual style of the artist, as the colors are nice, pastel, instead of striking ones. I don't know what you see here, but for me, it looks like a fireplace with woods, ready to be lit.
Roots 1 (2014), acrylic on canvas
I'd call it a nice abstract, as although the roots are visible, the colors are a bit unnatural, not what you find in nature, but then again, there are no rules when it comes to art. I like the the color combination though. Yellow goes well with blue.
Roots 2 (2014), acrylic on canvas
This is the second piece of the series. Same concept, different execution and I'd pick it any day due to the colors used. Without pink it would be better, but it is fantastic anyway.
Walnut Tree (2014), acrylic on canvas
Landing (2015), acrylic on canvas
Maybe the first thing you see here is the colors, it's pretty colorful indeed, but when you look at the rest ... it becomes funny and must have been painful, if it would happen in real life.
After you finished smiling, you may be wondering how would one think of such scenes honestly and it is a valid question. Art is a crazy thing, there are no limits and rules, which is good. I've seen plenty of crazy things on canvas, but this is really funny. Would you hang it on your wall?
Still Together (2004), acrylic on canvas
This is a family portrait with quite a lot of emotional impact. Granny with her two precious grandchildren. Everyone knows there comes a time when one of them is not going to be in the picture anymore. That's life, no matter how sad it is. If you have a closer look, there are two angels on the right side. I don't know if these are the angel of the two kids, or it means something else?
Sunrise (2024), acrylic on canvas
... aaaand this wins for me today. Funny that I wouldn't say it's sunrise, doesn't look like one, but I love the colors and the rough aspect of the landscape. The truth is, sunrise and sunset has been abused in so many ways and the mere mention of it makes my stomach turn, but this painting is different. Very different and in the best way possible. I love it.
Winery (2024), acrylic on canvas
If you look back, the style is changing, but there's something that is constant and that's the use of vivid colors.
Have you ever seen a series of five pieces, all about waterfalls? Here it is one.
Waterfall 1. (2014), acrylic on canvas
Waterfall 2. (2014), acrylic on canvas
Waterfall 3. (2014), acrylic on canvas
Waterfall 4. (2014), acrylic on canvas
Waterfall 5. (2014), acrylic on canvas
This is an amazing series and while I was uploading the photos, was wondering if I'd want all of them on my wall, or just the last one as that's my favorite.
For this post, I tried to make a selection as different in style as possible and it shows the talent of the artist. It's a huge gift, to be able to change style and explore different styles.
I hope you have a favorite. Let me know in a comment.
