Magdolna Szabó uses the circle, the orb and the sphere as building blocks in her water paintings. Endlessly repeating these basic geometric shapes, she imbues her monumental works with movement and volume. The simplicity of Szabó’s complex paintings is illusive. Nothing is firm here. All the elements seem to be in motion, as if the shapes had freed themselves from the paper, and foreground and background were trading places. The geometric variations in her pictures resemble Concrete Art. The colours offset each other and are applied with great delicacy. Magdolna Szabó works with watercolour, video and silkscreen monotypes.
