CONTEMPORARY NARRATIVES // WEAVING & GARDEN & TIME

The exhibition presents works created within the framework of The Curtain of Time, a thematic workshop in which invited artists reflected on the technique of weaving. Through our artistic program, we seek to create a counterpoint to the accelerated virtual world shaped by the pervasive digitalization of our lives by sustaining manual artistic practices. One such significant technique is weaving, whose rhythm—built upon repetitive gestures and deep concentration—enables an intensified experience of presence in the moment.

Artists
DÁNIEL BAJKÓ fine artist / ZSÓFIA HIDASI visual artist / ÁGI HORVÁTH fine artist / MÁJKÜL NÁJT/ ATTILA DÓCZI fine artist / PÉTER MÁTYÁSI fine artist / ÁKOS RAJNAI multidisciplinary artist / DÁVID REMSEY visual artist / LÁSZLÓ SIPOS writer, composer / ANNAMÁRIA SZENTPÉTERY intermedia artist / CSANÁD SZESZTAY photographer / PÉTER TIBA media artist / ÁDÁM TÓTH designer / TÜNDE ÚJSZÁSZI visual artist / ZSÓFIA ZALA designer

Our aim is to encourage visitors toward contemplation and reflection; therefore, instead of traditional opening speeches, the exhibition can be explored through an accompanying booklet that reveals the ideas behind the visual artworks. The experience of immersion will be accompanied by the music of Musica Moralia, while the state of slowing down and achieving physical and mental balance can be observed through the Tai Chi movements of Ádám Tóth in the garden. In the exhibition space, visitors can listen to the sound collage by Csanád Szesztay, a unique interpretation composed from audio recordings captured in the weaving workshop. The evening will conclude inside the interior space of the Calvary at the end of Körösfői Street with an ephemeral interdisciplinary installation by the Zartartz group.

Silent Structures | The Poetry of Structure and Form

Artists:
Viktória Kőrösi 
Tünde Újszászi

The exhibition opened by the great figure of geometrical art István Haász.

Viktória Kőrösi and Tünde Újszászi explore the transformative possibilities of folded canvas, where surface and structure form an inseparable unity. Their works—created with precision yet intuitively grounded in materiality—transcend the traditional boundaries of painting, questioning the relationship between two-dimensional and spatial form.

Kőrösi's folded objects, constructed from stretched canvases painted with oil and acrylic, carry the pure aesthetic of minimalism. The restrained, monochromatic use of color highlights the subtle tensions between softness and rigidity, flatness and sculptural form. Her work is inspired by a deep respect for traditional craftsmanship and the delicate balance of Japanese aesthetics, where freedom unfolds within the confines of structure.

Újszászi’s art is rooted in the structural logic of weaving, where the meditative examination of material and movement takes center stage. Through repetition, folding, and tying, she creates complex compositions that simultaneously convey fragility and strength, disintegration and unity. Her large-scale structures act as spatial interventions, blurring the line between artwork and environment, and drawing the viewer into the experience of the form’s continuous transformation.

Together, these two artists create a space where the act of folding and the transformation of canvas as material become both artistic gesture and philosophical inquiry. Their works are not merely objects; they are imprints of rhythm, balance, and transformation—reflecting the sensitive interplay between discipline and freedom, material and idea. The silently interwoven structures invite viewers to witness the quiet yet profound dialogue between surface, structure, and space—where each fold preserves the memory of a gesture, and every rupture unveils new formal possibilities.

Safe Place
07/05/ - 06/07/2022

Safe Place presents recent paintings along with a series of ink drawings on paper. Repetition, as a soothing and meditative act, is the main focus of Újszászi’s work and the theme of this exhibition. Departing from the special weaving techniques and small foldings of previous installations, gestural repetitions take place here on canvas. Taming the passing of time and overcoming her fears remain Tünde Újszászi’s preoccupations, along with her original research on the medium and all its possible uses.

Repetition is safe. The reason why I always aspire to achieve it is because I’m afraid to immerse myself in the void.
(Tünde Újszászi)

With broken hearts we stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine and for the defence of fundamental human rights.
We considered canceling this exhibition, as it seemed unconceivable to continue showing art in the actual context.
Instead, we’ve chosen to use this opportunity to actively support those hit by this tragedy. 
The gallery’s profits from this exhibition will be entirely donated to UNHCR The UN Refugees Agency.
We pray for peace.
