Tamás Melkovics

ARTIST: Tamás Melkovics

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

The starting point for Tamás Melkovics’s art is play; a free way of thinking that is closely intertwined with the behavior and learning methods that define childhood. They work with a constantly contemplative, exploratory, open-minded attitude, using traditional sculptural foundations as a springboard. Their sculptural tools are open, experimental.

“Personal expression and intuition play an essential role in the creation of my works. I create my sculptures through emotions, feelings, technical questions and experiences. In my current work, I attempt to unlock the static, closed foundations of sculpture. I create signs, characters, groups of meaningful and abstract forms. From these elements, I build, rearrange, dismantle and rebuild compositions of varying scale, maintaining a kind of dialogue with our ever-changing physical world.“

REPRESENTING GALLERY: Einspach Fine Art & Photography

ABOUT THE REPRESENTING GALLERY:

After closing Art+Text Budapest and followed that by a two-year long resting period, the founder of the gallery, Gábor Einspach returned to the art market with a new exhibition place founded with dr. Barbara Czapolai, named Einspach Fine Art & Photography, opening in June 2021. The gallery is located near to the Batthány Eternal Flame, on the ground floor of one of the finest palaces of Pest. The place brings a yet unknown, new quality to the Budapest gallery scene, with its own 5,5-meter inner height, its delicately renovated premises and with its enormous glass showcase facing the street.

The business profile of Einspach Fine Art & Photography includes both the most significant Post-War artists and young contemporary creators, painting, sculpture, ceramics, and photography too. The gallery regularly participates in prestigious international art fairs such as Paris Photo or Frieze Masters in London.
