,,Krist\u00f3f Nagy\u2019s elemental works are a fusion of the archaic, the transcendent and the contemporary. Preoccupied with the mysteries of existence, his art is characterised by both a primordial power and an intimate tenderness. On display are his stone and wood sculptures, installations, pieces of furniture, instruments and paintings spanning the last fifty years. Visitors will get a comprehensive view of his oeuvre, from his earliest pieces to those made this year. The son of Gy\u00f6rgyi Varga Cs\u00f3kos and Lajos Nagy Cs\u00e1kv\u00e1ri, he was raised in \u201cthe nomadic generation\u201d, but his output is marked by remarkable freedom. At once robust and effortless, it dissolves the perceived contrast between abstract and figurative forms as well as that between the traditional and the modern.”
