Ágnes Zászkaliczky

Agnes Zaszkaliczky is hungarian born visual artist based in Vienna. Since a couple of years she paints mostly portraits. Years of practice and education has helped her to reach the level where she is able to paint anybody`s portrait. She acquired the technique of classic portrait painting, which she learned of Russian experts. Therefore, when creating a portrait she uses the methods of Caravaggio and the masters of old age as well and she creates the composition with abstract elements. However, for her a portrait means much more than only a technical challenge. Besides the appearance, the real objective there is the visualisation of the character, the human being and the soul which is present on every face and expression. The portraits thus awaken with an ethereal complexion and we find ourselves gazed upon by the eternal and the unique.
