Artist Statement:
The chromatic abstractionist
"Adam Balogh"
Balogh's paintings might be
seen as experiments in
textural disruption. They
begin with flat hazy surfaces
resembling thin but uneven
veils of cloud illuminated by
the moon or the sun in
different stages of dusk or
dawn. The surfaces are then
rippled, subtly like a lake
drizzled on, dramatically like
a conflagration or itinerantly
like the path of an excited
particle. A chromatic
abstractionist would have
stopped at the hazy surface.
Balogh wonders what would
happen if he placed his finger
in a Rothko and swirled around
a bit.&<8232;&<8232;When the
rippling is moderate, Balogh's
paintings evoke something
vast, something galactic and
ambient. There might be
something nascent and
microscopic stirring, leaving
imprints (which not only
bestow texture but seem to
introduce new colors) many
times larger than the
imperceptible thing in motion.
In the pieces where texture
dominates, the hazy surface
seems less liquid and more
like a membrane, which veiny
structures stretch but can't
quite burst
through.&<8232;&<8232;-Eugene

| Your Personal Biography |
Adam Balogh has been presenting his works in individual and group exhibitions since 2000. The artist’s perceptive, open personality and the impact of his exotic journeys in Central and South America, Southeast Asia and the Middle East are reflected in his art. His paintings are spiritual pieces about our life and being that are comprehensible and perceptible for everybody. They have been on display in several exhibitions abroad. Adam Balogh’s photos have been published in several itineraries in Hungary and abroad as well.
As always, Ádám Balogh’s paintings teach us to fly in thought and imagination, to love ourselves, our human existence and nature. They help us to get closer to ourselves, submerge into ’Freudian’ depths, emerge from there rejuvenated, with old wisdom, new knowledge and hope. And to dream freely.
"Welcome to this adventurous voyage into the depth of the soul. Phantasy, or 'another' reality? Back to the origin: out to the stars, or/and into ourselves? Is this mystical world to be found outside in the distant universe, or very close, inside ourselves, in the depth of our being, in the rich internal images of the subconscious? See!"
