The exhibition presents selected retrospective works by this devoted lover of Lake Balaton — works that, in theme and spirit, align both with Gross Arnold and with several artists who have exhibited at the gallery to date. Béla Ikafalvi-Farkas is serene and peaceful, radiating calm. His watercolors provide the explanation: in them one sees not man, not the man-made world, but only the manifestations of nature — many-colored, capricious, unfathomable, yet knowable to the humble observer. Now hazy and ethereal, now in stern, deep colors. Straight lines nowhere: every “line” is drawn by the laws of nature. As a watercolorist he dissolves completely into his subject; his careful observations show man’s respect in the face of invincible forces.
