The three-room exhibition of József Szurcsik is a kind of retrospective exhibition, which presents characteristic works from the most important periods of Szurcsik’s artistic career: early graphics and pencil drawings, plate covers and oil paintings on cardboard. Paintings with his signature motifs, such as traps, absence, walls, human relationships, and shaped mythological compositions.

" My friendship with Master Szurcsik, which has developed under the spell of music and painting, goes back more than 40 years. In 1981, the East orchestra, of which I was a member, released its now iconic album Játékok (Games ) with a cover by József Szurcsik. It was then that I first felt the meeting, the perfect fit, the timeless friendship of two genres exploring different artistic paths and dimensions. The cover of the iLAND band's album A Sziget (The Island) is also attributed to the artist of the exhibition The Garden of the Magician at the Kunsthalle. The acoustic music of iLAND, which will be performed on 4 April, is proof of the close, timeless and existential relationship between the worlds of images and music, and of their shared journey."
Composer Géza Pálvölgyi, musical director of iLAND.
