Words of introduction By Károly Tóth Koppány Árnyas is an engaged artist. He is engaged with art, the art of creation, and its different techniques and methods. As a member of a young generation of artists, he promoted in his artistic carrier from pre-matured street art toward large scale paintings and the different modes of artistic expression eagerly experimenting with newer and newer technical and visual solutions. Starting his career after the first years of the third millennia, he belongs to a generation which was inspired by the new techniques and methodologies of the new, digital pictures. He tries to express the new waves of seeing mixing classical genres of painting (like portraits, still-lifes, landscapes) with a remembrance of the digitalised way of seeing. In his latest work, he deals with the idea of memories. When the painter sits in front of the canvas and starts painting, he always recalls some memories of the past of sights, of visions, of experiences. The idea of the pre-existing art work is always in the mind of the artist as the most fascinating process begins, how to execute, how to shape form of it. This is the most fascinating challenge of generations of artists, as Karl Ove Knausgård concludes in his latest book on the Norwegian genius, Edvard Munch. Decades and generations have passed, the challenges of artistic creation remained the same that Koppány have to face with. Koppány is also an engaged traveller and voyeur trough different continents. He lives to discover and to learn about new continents, new cultures, new ways of seeing. In the past year he visited North and South America, from the urbanised United States to the authentic and indigenous Peru, and from the Saharan Morocco and sensual Andalusia to the High North landscapes of Scandinavia. He implemented all his experiences to his art, re-creating the experiences of his trips around the globe in many of his new paintings. His African-Moroccan sources of inspiration are given a spectacular from in his stylish large-scale arabesque motives.
