Márton Nemes

Press release

National Participation - Hungary

Márton Nemes is one of the most innovative representatives of the young generation of painters, who experiments with a 21st century reinterpretation of the image, pushing the boundaries of traditional painting in material and space. For the Hungarian Pavilion, he has designed a multimedia, multi-sensory, colour-centred Gesamtkunstwerk that builds on the traditions of abstract painting and on contemporary experience, such as techno-subculture and digital imaging. His exhibition is multisensory: its visual, acoustic and interactive content unfolds through the combined effects of light and colour, object and light movement, sound, light frequency and airflow.
