Péter Appelshoffer Pittore (2010)

Appelshoffer’s newest painting and the series including this was inspired by a travelling to Paris one year earlier. There is a „little French airiness” inside them, flexible and dynamic sketching and burning, ardent colours. But these are seeing across rather into a full-blooded expressivity which is revealing of the Hungarian painting. 

 

The picture shows Modigliani’s grave at Pere Lachaise cemetery, figuring in its „modesty”, the geometrical solids, shapes and colours and a thick factor commands on it. It says and denotes everything which is the importance of the paintings: with the Master, the Painter, the Pittore’s tomb theme too, which are underlining the style and composition, giving theme assist and completing the essence of paintings. The „Pittore” painting could be visited in Spiritusz Gallery’s Appelshoffer Péter’s exhibition until the 28th of July 2010.
