Amongst themselves Painting

"Tibor Soskuti is a Hungarian-born visual artist living and working in Berlin, Germany. Soskuti’s visual language is distinguished by a remarkable versatility as well as a heightened sensitivity towards his subject matter, which simultaneously encompasses personal experiences and issues of a universal nature. From small-scale drawings to wall murals, from computer graphics-based paintings to graffiti, Soskuti finds expression with arresting ease in an array of different techniques, materials, and scales. Through his artistic process he creates and subsequently explores a vast stylistic landscape, re-inventing himself over and over again as his attention turns to new, uncharted territory. His portraits stand as testaments to mastering the art of drawing with great naturalistic precision while his "Visions and Dreams" attest to his uncurbed fantasy and creative power. Many of his series are self-contained universes, capturing as well as responding to a wide range of occurrences in the artist’s life, thoughts, visions and dreams – his "Neurology" paintings and "Paintings for the Blind" being excellent examples of that. Soskuti’s personal journey has been just as rich and eventful as his art: having worked with the Hungarian underground in the 1970s and early 1980s, he emigrated to Berlin in 1986 from where he would travel the rest of Europe and work in various capacities over the coming decades. Throughout his career he contributed to a multitude of projects in theatre and television and carried out numerous commissions as a graphic designer, photographer, and sculptor. These in turn fueled his independent artistic output, which has been and remains an continuous and compelling presence in Soskuti’s life." ​ Alexandra Koronkai-Kiss M.A.
