The jubilee show at Art Market Budapest 2019
In 2019 a-space Gallery Switzerland is represented for the fifth time at Art Market Budapest. On the occasion of this anniversary, a-space Gallery is showing works by 10 international artists from Switzerland, Germany, Hungary, Australia and Taiwan. In this large group exhibition, a selection of works will be presented that inspire visitors with innovative techniques and clear aesthetic languages.
The spectrum of works ranges from painting and drawing to photography, sculpture and installations. Besides established artists like the Swiss painter Steph Hermes this year young talents such as the Hungarian Fanni Bacskai will be shown. For those who like paradoxes and absurdities, Martin Gut is the right choice, while lovers of figurative art should take a closer look at the works of Laura Badertscher and Joey Schmidt-Muller. The works of Tyrone Richards deal with technological and scientific themes, while the Taiwanese artist Wei-Yun Chang sees herself more as a multidisciplinary visual storyteller. Fabian Bürgy and Megan Rodgers work sculpturally, while the Zurich photographer Bruno Alder captures spaces with his camera. This year the founder of the a-space Gallery, Roy Andres Hofer, is showing a part of his „too big to fail“-Art Basel objects. A special anniversary selection of a-space Gallery are this year‘s artists Michael Cheung from Hong Kong and Jonathan Ouisse from Hungary. Their work is highly inspired by todays media influences.
The exhibition is curated by Jasmin Glaab, a freelance curator and art mediator from Switzerland and Roy Hofer, founder of a-space Gallery.
