SKY and WATER – An Exhibition by Painter Béla Ikafalvi-Farkas

Share

opening: April 22, 2017, 6 p.m.
opened by: painter Magdolna Ványai
with a performance by: Dj Matild (aki Bem)
open: until May 17, Tuesday to Friday 10 a.m. – 9 p.m., Saturday 11 a.m. – 9 p.m.

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.
