This was an exhibition of a single artist and the pieces exhibited have been created over decades. The exhibition was named Internal Stairs and the artist who created these works is Gy枚ngyi Kerekes.

It was one of the strangest exhibition I've been to, because I don't think I understood much. The works had no title, I mean they had a collective title, but other than that, everything was left to the viewer to figure out and to be honest, you can't understand much from a painting like the one you see on the photo above. Or I'm the only one failing to understand what the artist meant. I admit it, no shame it that.

Now I'm not saying I understand this, but it seems more likable to me than the others, due to the geometrical shapes and colors.

These works are called The Search Of Balance.

Improvisations

I've been to this gallery several times and know its capabilities, which are limited obviously, but this time the organizers came up with this idea to set up these wooden boards in the middle of the room and hang the artworks on them. I loved the idea as it gives the artworks a nice, natural looking background, breaks reflection as well as the light comes from above, but ... there's always a but. If they would have paid a bit more attention to symmetry and lines, would have been way better, for me.

Abstract art for abstract fans.

I like abstract and am able to appreciate it most of the times, but this is a bit far from my taste.

As I mentioned before, I don't go to openings, because you can't take photos when there's a crowd, but sometimes I wish I were there to listen to what the artist has to say about their artworks. It would help me understand better what was the idea behind the creation.

In this case I wish I would have been there.

This was where I paused for a minute. Not that I started to understand something, but because I liked the paining at the bottom. Those blue shades, paired with the yellow background looked good in my eyes. White or other color may not have given the painting any advantage, but this pale yellow is a perfect match in my opinion.
