Vernissage "Traumwelten" von József Tüttő & Maria Rabold
In the exhibition "Dream Worlds," two artists, József Tüttő and Maria Rabold, will showcase their paintings from September 5 to September 18, 2014, at the Joachim Rongs Gallery for Modern Art (Gaudystrasse 25, 10437 - Berlin).
The opening reception will take place on September 5, 2014, at 7:00 PM.
Maria Rabold (Germany) creates drawings and paintings using watercolor and acrylic. Her works express her desire for order amidst chaos, her love for colors and shapes, as well as her yearning for freedom and constant change. The playfulness and lightness, along with the combination of various materials, techniques, and imagery, make her pieces truly unique. Her technique varies significantly depending on the specific artwork, the theme, and the medium used. In her watercolors, she typically employs pre-stretched canvases, which she often moistens beforehand and works on using a wet-on-wet technique with a large round brush. She usually applies the colors unmixed. Sometimes she also incorporates sponges, spatulas, and other tools. In the earliest stages of her creations, the focus is primarily on color composition. For the foreground, including the animals and embellishments in her bird series, she uses acrylic paints and a variety of ink pens. Maria draws much of her inspiration from nature—the sky, cloud formations, different types of light, animals, and reflections in water. Conversations and other art forms, such as ballet, opera, books, and poetry, also inspire her. Rabold lives and works in Berlin, Germany.
József Tüttő (Hungary) explores themes and characters in his art that ignite his imagination. His choice of subjects is influenced by his personality—he represents themes as he perceives them or as he wishes them to be seen by viewers. His technique allows him to achieve the effect he envisions in the artwork in the most ideal way for him. József employs a unique scraping technique, which is the opposite of traditional painting methods where more and more paint is applied. He dabs, scratches, and wipes away the oil paint he has applied, shaping it according to the desired representation. The continuous improvement and perfection of this technique motivate him while painting. For him, creativity signifies freedom. Tüttő lives and works in Marcali, Hungary.
Live Act: Gellért Szabó (Germany) is a young, highly talented guitarist. His influences stem from jazz and blues, but his great passion lies in film music.
He cites Hans Zimmer's Requiem for a Dream as the spark that ignited his music career. Thus, he tours solo or with accompaniment through cafes and bars, bringing his own vision of music to life, free from rules and stylistic constraints.
