In The World Of Sculptures

Today was time for another exhibition. The past couple of weeks were pretty busy and full of stress for me, so I thought let's spend half an hour in the world of art, to take my mind of the problems and also see something that I've never seen before. It works for me perfectly each time and this time it wasn't any different.

Muresan Gheorghe - Window XXII

I tried to figure out what the artist meant, but couldn't come up with an explanation. It's not that I don't like it or appreciate it, just don't understand it. However, it's a very original representation of a window and not the only one.

Muresan Gheorghe - Window XXV

Here's another one, the 25ths, which makes me believe we're talking about a series. There were only these two at the exhibition as it wasn't a solo exhibition, but it would have been nice to see the whole collection and evaluate it, or better yet, enjoy it as a whole. As you can see, there are recurring elements here, which makes me believe the other pieces of the collection might have them, but in a different combination. Must be cool though. I love how the rings of the wood are visible on those irregular shaped wood pieces.

József Attila Nagy - On Your Feet I. and II.

Here I needed to work magics to be able to take a half decent shot because of the reflections. I loved the texture of the stone a lot. Look at the pattern and the for of them as well. Really original.

Remus Irimescu - Identity

Yes, I know I already said this, but this was really original and very interesting too. It's as if you lifted the top of it and you see the negative, or as if you could shut it and get a plain top, except you can't. I don't know what kind of metal this was made of, but I like how it is shining and its lovely color as well.

Árpád Kolumbán Kántor - No Title

A little birdie in the nest. When I see such artworks, always makes me wonder how it is done. Is the artist using rusty metal pieces, or the rust comes after the artwork is finished? I liked the concept here.

Gheorghe Muresan - Shelter For The Stairs

It's a funny concept, very nicely executed. What I noticed here is the exceptional quality of the wood. When it comes to sculpting in wood, the quality of the wood makes a huge difference and not only because of how you can work with it, but as final look as well. The artist picked the best quality in my opinion. look at the texture and the nice, natural color of it. I love it.

Csaba Sánta - Wind Sculpture

Two artworks from the same artist, both with the same title and designed for the same purpose. The one on the left is kind of featuring the wind roosters you see on rooftops at the countryside, but this one is more artistic, more original. The other one on the left is a bit more abstract. If I were to pick one, I'd definitely go with the one on the right :)

Vince Bocskai - Trace of the Cross

This was a very cool one. The way how the artist chose to use the wood, the way how he placed the trace of the cross and the wavy surface of the wood, it's absolutely amazing. When I saw it, the first thing that I did was to look if it's one piece, or the top is placed on the bottom piece, but it is one piece, which makes it more valuable in my eyes. Look at the print of the wood and the lovely color.

Vince Bocskai - Crossroad

Kind of similar concept, yet different execution. This was also made of a single piece of wood. If you think of the significance, it's quite fascinating. Life is exactly like that.

László Hunyadi - Portrait

A stone sculpture, quite an unusual one for several reasons. First, the color and texture of the stone is unusual. Second, the execution is very neat, very smooth, yet look at the facial expression of the lady.

Lattice Trap

Unfortunately I didn't capture the name of the artist, just the title of the artwork. I find this one funny, but very interesting and original too. Look at those feet. This was made of stone, metal and glass.

Attila Pokornyi - Babel

Or, in other words, the tower of Babel. I love the texture of the rings, the material used, and how the rings are placed one on top of the other.

For those of you who don't know the story:

The Tower of Babel narrative in Genesis 11:1–9 is an origin myth and parable meant to explain why the world's peoples speak different languages.

According to the story, a united human race speaking a single language and migrating eastward, comes to the land of Shinar. There they agree to build a city and a tower with its top in the sky. Yahweh, observing their city and tower, confounds their speech so that they can no longer understand each other, and scatters them around the world.

Some modern scholars have associated the Tower of Babel with known structures, notably Etemenanki, a ziggurat dedicated to the Mesopotamian god Marduk in Babylon. Many scholars believe that the biblical story was inspired by Etemenanki. A Sumerian story with some similar elements is told in Enmerkar and the Lord of Aratta. source

This is just a part of the exhibition, the rest is coming soon. As you can see here, we have stone, wood, metal and glass as well. Looking back I asked myself what I would pick if I were asked to choose one material. But I think I would pick wood. It's not a secret that I'm kind of addicted to wood. This doesn't mean I don't like the metal work, or the stone.
