Gyula Czimra (Czimra Gyula) stands out as one of the most distinctive voices in 20th-century Hungarian painting. His works, spanning from 1924 to 1965, chart a fascinating journey through artistic styles—from romantic realism to post-impressionism, bold Fauvist colors, and later the influence of naïve art. Over the years, his art evolved into pure, decorative-realistic creations, marked by symbolic and metaphysical moods, geometric lines, and minimalist interiors and still lifes.
The Depth of a Life’s Work
The exhibition offers a comprehensive look at every phase of Czimra’s career. It features nearly 180 pieces—paintings, sculptures, graphics, and tapestries—representing almost half of the artist’s entire body of work. The most memorable, intimate parts of his oeuvre are the small-scale paintings from his later years, capturing scenes from his own home. These invite viewers into a contemplative, almost otherworldly reality.
Visit Before It’s Gone
This major exhibition is open until September 14. Don’t miss your chance to experience this immersive journey through Czimra’s unique artistic vision.
