Nagybánya Artists' Colony
The Nagybánya artists' colony was an art colony in Nagybánya, a town in eastern Hungary that became Baia Mare in Romania after World War I. The colony started as a summer retreat for artists, mainly painters from Simon Hollósy's ''szabadiskola'' (Free School) in Munich. The original group focused on plein-air painting. It was Hollósy's idea to have a summer school in a small town. Fellow artists Károly Ferenczy, Béla Iványi-Grünwald, István Réti and János Thorma were involved with the founding of the artists' colony. The colony attracted many artists from Hungary interested in learning the plein-air style taught by Hollósy in the bright atmosphere of Nagybánya. The colony held its first exhibition in 1897 at the ''Műcsarnok.'' It was well received by some critics as reflecting the new and innovative style of European painting and ridiculed by other critics for its departure from traditional forms and techniques. Through the course of its existence the teachers and s ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Noémi Ferenczy
Noémi Ferenczy (18 June 1890 – 20 December 1957) was a Hungarian artist, best known for her tapestry designs. She wove her own tapestries, and was influenced by the Nagybánya art movement. She was born in Szentendre, the twin sister of sculptor Béni Ferenczy. They were the children of the artists Károly Ferenczy and Olga Fialka. The Ferenczy Museum in Szentendre was founded in order to hold artworks by the family as well as other artists. Noémi became a socialist, and this is reflected in the political themes of some of her work. She produced watercolours and sketches which were mostly turned into designs for tapestry and carpets. In addition to developing designs for Gobelin-style tapestries, Noémi Ferenczy taught the art to others, resulting in a trend for tapestry in Hungary during the 1950s and 1960s. She died in Budapest, aged 67, and is buried, along with her parents and her brother Béni, in the Kerepesi Cemetery. A portrait of Noémi and Béni at the age of ei ...

István Csók
István Csók (13 February 1865, Sáregres – 1 February 1961, Budapest) was a Hungarian Impressionist painter. Although he was born in Transdanubia, his narrower homeland was not a hill country, but the flat greens of the Sárrét, the humid air of the Sárvíz and Malomvíz, and the lush green vegetation. Life The child István Csók found an excellent environment for his daydreams weaving tales on the banks of the roaring stream, where he spent hours in the shade of the weeping willows or at the base of the rustling reeds, immersed in his storybook or daydreaming. He was a sickly, weak child, his family pampered him and condoned his little pranks. Later, in high school, he interpreted learning in a peculiar way: he was unable to deal with what he didn't feel like doing, but he didn't have to study what he liked. After seeing the warnings sent home every quarter, his father finally ran out of patience and reproachfully asked the question in his reprimanding letter: ...
