’IN HER WORKS, RÉKA KASZÁS DISPLAYS EVERYTHING FROM PLANT MOTIFS CONJURED BY FINE, SPIDERWEBLIKE COLOUR LINES REMINISCENT OF 19THCENTURY WATERCOLOURISTS – IN WHICH, THE TELLTALE
PICTORIAL EVENTUALITY OF »HOW WAS IT MADE« APPEARS, TO THE BLACK AND WHITE LANDSCAPE MOTIFS
EVOKING THE AIR OF JAPANESE WOODCUTS AS WELL AS OTHER COLOUR OR TINTED, CLASSICAL LANDSCAPE
ELEMENTS. KASZÁS DOES NOT ANALYSE – LIKE WHAT SHE DID IN HER EARLIER CITYSCAPES, SHE
LETS HERSELF BE INFLUENCED BY HER EMOTIONS, SENSITIVE BRUSHWORK AND REMINISCENCES OF THE
GREAT PERIODS OF ART HISTORY. IN TRUTH, SHE IS A LYRICAL TYPE, WHO ON THE OTHER HAND VIRTUALLY
DISTRACTS THE VIEWER FROM THEIR NOSTALGIA FOR LANDSCAPES WITH AN ELEMENT INCORPORATED
INTO THE PICTURE AREA.‘
