Danse Macabre – Judit Rita Rabóczky’s sculpture exhibition
Judit Rita Rabóczky is a promising talent of the young Hungarian sculptor generation, who mainly uses painted iron, rolled wire or pyrogranite in her work. Her recurrent themes: portraits, masks, angels, cats, ladies shoes, interiors and sculpture installations, especially human figures in movement. Her sculptures reveal the direct influence of Giotto, Giacometti and Gormley, but also thise of prehistoric art.
Her most recent creations include mobile sculpture installations, namely the sculptures about lads: „In this series, the artist gave up that decorative aesthetics that often accentuates feminine shapes in an erotic manner. Her cut and welded disks carry a brutal and expressive force, without hiding materiality. On the chubby faces of the laughing, crying and grimacing puttos we can identify the painful, shattered then reconstructed mimics of Giotto’s angels, however these kids no longer remind us of those angels who lost their wings but of those dolls from thrillers that have revived from the depths of the lumber-room.” (Zoltán Rockenbauer)
The exhibition will be opened by Völgyi Tóth Zsuzsa cultural editor, MTVA presenter, in collaboration with Boldizsár Szabolcs on flute.
