I regard the exhibition entitled <em>Visionary Realism<\/em>, also organized here by me in 2007 out of works by artists no longer among the living, as its precursor. It continued to exist in the form of an idea, and it remains a question if, to quote Mann again, this time from <em>The Genesis of Doctor Faustus<\/em>, \u201cthe time for this task, which albeit as a goal was set only vaguely but nonetheless long ago, has come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The task: to borrow from <em>Visionary Realism<\/em> representatives of the grotesque and the bizarre and of trends going beyond the scruples of composition based on form, and to complement the exhibition with contemporaries working in a similar spirit so that Gyula Sug\u00e1r\u2019s axiom can be valid for the \u201chistorical\u201d works and the contemporary works; namely \u201cInformation content instead of aesthetics.\u201d Thereby, the personal-visionary understanding of reality, which disregards the schemes of the profession and notions of art of our time, can encounter the practices which treat the ironic, reflective system of art production today, the theoretical officiousness surrounding this system, and the selected medium with equal disdain. Thus, a conjunction of genre parodies, \u201cover-painted\u201d pictures, banal subjects and hybrid forms\u2014a conjunction which retains personal traits\u2014can come into being which contains chapters in the unwritten story of Hungarian bad painting.<\/p>\n<p>Artists and works began to come to mind, prompted by this idea\u2026but I\u2019m not phrasing it correctly, this was not quite how it happened, rather it went the other way around from how it has always gone when I organized \u201ccuratorial\u201d exhibitions. Against the backdrop of day to day work, the slowly gathering pictorial experiences became interlocked so that finally, in a good case scenario\u2014but on a sensual-experiential basis\u2014a phenomenon took shape that can be formulated in words as well.<\/p>\n<p>I believe this is when the time for a task \u201cset long ago\u201d and the test of pictorial memory arrives: the real meeting of works in \u00d3buda that were conceived beforehand, \u201cthe one for the other.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"szerzo\">G\u00e1bor Andr\u00e1si<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lRYF-VT0Qrk&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;15109&#8243;
