Description from the seller
Miklos Németh (Budapest 1934-2012): Portrait
-----
Gouache on paper
Signed bottom left
Dated (since the paper unusually contains a printed accounting page on the back, it can be dated to 1997)
-----
Artwork size: 20 x 30 cm
-----
Austrian private collection, Salzburg.
-----
Miklos Németh studied from 1950 to 1954 at the independent art school of Ödön Márffy and was influenced by prominent artists such as István Varga Ilosvai, Emil Gádor and Menyhért Tóth.
Between 1990 and 1998 he served as secretary-general of the Budapest artists’ group ("Buda Artists’ Group").
-----
His works are traded internationally today; especially in the German-speaking world demand has risen strongly in recent years. Auction prices average around EUR 900.00, with an upward tendency, and record surcharges of up to EUR 10,000.00 for particularly large or important works.
-----
Németh clearly rejected regime-loyal Socialist Realism and instead oriented himself toward Western art movements such as German Expressionism and Fauvism. His painting is characterized by intense color structure, impulsive brushwork and a mosaic-like composition, often with clear contours and color fields. He described himself as a "Painter of the Volcano"—inspired by the dynamics and texture of cooling lava.
-----
The artist had solo and group exhibitions, e.g. at the Műcsarnok Gallery Budapest 1981 and the Ernst Museum 2000. Participation in the National Watercolor Biennials. Awards include, among others: Prize on the 100th anniversary of the Pest–Buda Association, István-Ilosvai Varga Prize 1996, honor by the city of Szentendre through the Ferenczy Museum for collection exhibitions. His works are in numerous public collections, such as the Austrian Belvedere Gallery.
-----
Miklós Németh was significant for Hungarian modernism, with a strongly personal, expressive style. His art created image-laden emotional spaces, inspired by color, form and inner dynamics—without any implicit social or political agenda.
-----
The original work offered here is an unique piece in very good condition (see illustrations).
-----
The work is not framed.
-----
Shipping will be by insured parcel in professional, transit-safe packaging.
