After a short break, I'm back to sharing art again. I'm not sure about you, but I have missed art. The break I mentioned wasn't really a break for me, it was more like a forced break from my usual routine, which covers blogging and visiting galleries among other things.
Today I'd like to put you to a test, to see if you can see more than I can see, or understand more than I can. For this exercise, I'm going to use Erzsébet Kulcsár's art. None of the paintings had a title, which gives you the chance to have your own title and see things how you want.
This was a difficult one for me, most likely for you too. What I could see here is most likely three people? But I'm not sure. Maybe a mother with two children?
Similar idea, but it seems to me the silhouette is under water and what you see floating around it could be fish and underwater vegetation.
I's say I can see a similar concept here, however, the shape of the silhouette is different. Could be a male and a female and the different background color may support my theory. While looking at this painting, was thinking about how you can depict amazing concepts by using just a handful colors. I like simple when it comes to art. It leaves room for your imagination. Or confuse you more? You decide.
Here things get a little bit complicated. The silhouettes we know already, we saw these earlier. Could be a family of three, mother, father and a child. As you can see, the whole canvas is covered with small brushstrokes. The blue could mean the sky. Their clothes are covered with small flowers, which in my eyes could mean happiness. But at the end of the day, this one is too confusing for me.
Apart from the somewhat similar silhouette and the strong colors, I can see the dress here. I'll leave this to you.
Most likely I don't have to say much here, except one thing. What do you think? Is the lady looking inside the room from outside, or looking out of the window, standing in the room? Would love to know how you see this one.
This was a total mystery for me, but liked the colors. That mustard yellow goes well with the blue.
This is where things started to get interesting. This is something you don't see every day. Four paintings, all depicting the same thing, but in different colors. It was almost like Andy Warhol style, but on separate canvases.
If I were to guess, I'd say this is a scene from the Middle East, but I'm basing my opinion solely on the shape of the buildings and might be wrong. I like the turquoise sky and the dark yellow color combination.
At first glance you'd think the painting is the same as the one above and just the colors differ, but it's not. Look at the red marks on the buildings. That makes it different from the first one.
Same buildings, different colors, but there's something else. See how the yellow highlights the blue buildings from behind? It's kind of cool, adds to the effect, quite a lot.
You know what's interesting? I didn't see any of this at the exhibition. I was convinced only the colors differ. Yet, at a second look, while I'm writing this post, the differences are obvious.
This is a bit different in sense of the difference between the style of the others is a bit bigger. The buildings have the same shape, but their color is not the same. Some are pink, others are dark.
As I mentioned above, I've never seen such a series, but I'm glad I had the occasion of seeing this one. It's a very interesting concept and wish I could ask the artist was was in her mind when she decided to create this series. What was she wanted to pass on to the viewers.
Remember I told you none of the paintings had titles? I was thinking how fun it would be to write down what you think about each painting and then listen to the artist about what she has to share about them. Imagine the shock when you realize you missed most of it and see a totally different thing. Fun game though. Don't you think?
Let's see, which one is your favorite today? If you have any. I hope you do.
