István Pető

István Pető’s art incorporates both the sensual freedom of painting and a profound, meditative formal construction. The contrast of the lyrical and the raw, the blank surfaces that reveal the structure of the canvas, the infinitely subtle colour transitions applied in several layers, the expressive, wild gestures and the organic, vibrant forms are projections of a particularly rich inner world, which serve to resonate with different regions of the observer’s soul. In his work, graphics and painting constantly connect.
