Fine Arts in Hungary
This site is dedicated to fine arts in Hungary from the beginnings in the Romanesque period up to the mid 20th century. In spite of the abundance of invaluable artworks, Hungarian fine arts are somewhat underrated outside the country. It is, therefore, the site's objective to present a full range of painting and sculpture in Hungary to a world-wide general public by introducing artists and their most important artworks.
Gaudens Pedit Collection
The Gaudens Pedit Collection is the most comprehensive and meaningful document on Hungarian art at the time of the country's opening to the West. The works date from the beginning of the 1980s up until the middle of the 1990s. The collection was built up between 1988 and 1994 by Christoph Achammer, Michael Neubauer, Gaudens Pedit, Kurt Sailer and Alexander Svoboda. At www.art-hungary.com the Gaudens Pedit Collection is being presented for the very first time. On show are 300 works by 29 artists complete with biographical information. For each artist you can find an up-to-date biography and bibliography as well as an oeuvre description with links to the works and artists mentioned.
