This time, The Space’s end-of-year exhibition starts from the depths of the warehouse: it is composed of items from shelves, from under packing paper, and from memories of previous fairs and exhibitions. The “unpacking” takes place both literally and figuratively – we show what remains when we strip away all the frills and let the works speak for themselves.
The fourteen artists of The Space—including painters, graphic artists, sculptors, and photographers—appear side by side this time, without a fixed concept. Instead of the logic of a warehouse, spontaneity now reigns: works that are rarely seen together, but which nevertheless outline the character, history, and connections of the gallery, are placed on the walls and in the space.
There will be works that can be hung on the wall and placed in the space: spheres and roosters by Györgyi Cséffai, street art by Erell, graphics by Csaba Fürjesi, screen prints by Gabriella Hajnal, metal objects by Judit Horváth Lóczi, flowers by Kata Koleszár, embroidery with figures by Márti Kiss, brass objects by Botond Kiss, landscape photos by Liz Miller Kovács, layers by Judit Lilla Molnár, cones and spheres by Eszter Poroszlai, ceramics by Dániel Sallay, bodies by Gábor Szenteleki, and abstracts by Kati Vilim. Sámuel Vidákovits also joins the exhibition, whose participation brings a new perspective to the “internal” material—an outside eye that looks back at the same contemporary reality, but from a different angle.
We know this too, so it’s not just a warehouse clearance, but a status report: what we’ve collected over the past few years, what language we speak today, and what we think “knowledge” means in art.
