Tamas Kopasz: Saul 5 (G. F. Handel series)

A Godot Gallery has been organising exhibitions since 2001, where they present a subjective selection from the contemporary art holdings of notable private collections, usually around a specific theme. Viewers have been able to see slices of significant collections such as the Spengler‑Somlói, the Antal‑Lusztig or the Feuer Collection. Last year, we curated from the remains of conceptual art when we selected works from the collection of Péter Sáránszki, and three years ago we showcased the collection of Lajos Barabás, which specialises in strictly geometric abstract works.

Alexander Tinei: Mask

At this year’s exhibition a young, ambitious collector, Hetényi Csaba, was featured. The collector typically selected key pieces at auctions or from the circle of major domestic private galleries. The works on display reflect his concept well, which embraces almost the whole of domestic contemporary art, both in terms of genre and the age of the practitioners. Abstract art is represented in both geometric and lyrical‑informal works (Konok, Kopasz); our drama‑critical visual artists have a place too (Bukta, Gaál, Kazovszkij); the doyenne of conceptual art, Tót Endre, the Moldovan artist living in Budapest who has achieved great success at foreign fairs, Alexander Tinei, and the most well‑known blogger of domestic visual art and frequent participant in domestic auctions, Váli Dezső, are all included.

Tót Endre: The Last Supper

In the diverse collection of Csaba Hetényi the most unmistakable intention is to try to acquire important works from artists who have entered his visual field. In many cases we can boldly call these masterpieces. A few of them are now on display at the Godot Gallery.
