House on Thursday, 13
September
At this time, int he autumn of
2007, a topical question is

that incorporated into
European artistic consciusness
tribal art, regarded as
primitive and naive at the
time,attaching high importance
to masks as a visual element,
ceremonial paraphelmalia and
objets d’art. It is this

Artist Reviews:
Katalin Gellér: in tube
immediately
One need not be a connaisseur
to notice that in the art of
Attila Orbán geometric order
and free gesture are set side
by side, however, and that is
what I would like to
emphasise, there is no real
confrontation, no antinomy,
