Saturday Night Pixels

Last night I saw an exhibition called Pixels which I would like to share with you.



It showed the works of young Hungarian artists, among others, my friend Aron's paintings.



Here is a small selection of what he does, I think it is authentic, super-cool stuff.


I love the intensity of his pictures, there is so much going on, so many colours, shapes, patterns, fun. Pop-graffiti-comic strip coctails. They do have a cheer-up effect on me.



Also, I realised that size does matter, at least in art for sure. Seeing the original ones as big as they are does make a very different impression from seeing them in a photo.



My favourite is the one above, with the half manga face. Which one do you like best? Cast your vote, I'm curious to know!


Anyways, enjoy the pictures and spread the word that there is a young artist out there worth looking at (and investing into...)

    Awesome exhibition indeed - I also like the half manga, also the car one at the bottom and that little monster one.

    I love the half manga one too, i think the face is from a show I used to watch, called Bleach. I also like the one with the pink monster dude.

    This is my sort of art! :D I love the fourth image down on the post - the blue Mod face/person with the red/teal/black below. Awesome!

    I'm liking his stuff - very modern and inspired by pop culture... very cool! My favourite would be the second one down - the grey girl with the checks. Subtle, yet still fresh.

    I totally liked it!
    Very Warholish.
    From the ones you've posted, my favourite is also the one with the half manga face on it. It just hitted me.
    Nos vemos Dora!

    I like the second one with the woman's face and the checkered scarf-thingie the best. :)

    And yes, I agree that size DOES matter when it comes to art, and scenery.

    Even for just pictures, I find that bigger photos make for more engaging scenes...
