Balint Zsako "New Drawings"
The Proposition
This event has ended.
Within these earlier works (2002-2007) as well as in his newest drawings at The Proposition, Zsako seamlessly blends his use of paint and ink in such a delicate fashion that the two media appear to coincide naturally. Each piece seems to have a thematic connection with the next, due in large part to the artists’ established vocabulary of images: naked bodies (be they transparent, mutated, morphing, or copulating), bodily fluids seeping from characters’ orifices, flora attached to or growing from figures, colorful fauna as stringed antagonists and elaborate mechanical constructions and alchemical apparatuses used for manipulation or control. The compositions, however, can vary drastically: in some instances the characters appear standing or floating in blank white space (void of the slightest hint of a horizon), while in others they inhabit a more developed landscape, sometimes accompanied by a pitch black sky.
