The current exhibition of Einspach & Czapolai Fine Art, in collaboration with the Konok – Hetey Art Foundation, pays tribute to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Katalin Hetey (1924-2010). Katalin Hetey, who became famous in France after the Second World War as one of the most important representatives of Hungarian abstract art in exile, shares the same orientation, spirit and complexity of her work as her compatriots from Hungary.

The exhibition presents a selection from three groups of works, including white organic sculptures made in the 1960s, which Hetey later arranged in box spaces, embossed works on paper oscillating between the dimensions of plane and space (Paper Reliefs, 1980-1990s), and the frieze, which can be interpreted as a metaphysical process, composed of small reliefs and paintings (Relief series) in 1973.
