Einspach & Czapolai Fine Art

After the closure of Art+Text Budapest, the founder of the gallery, Gábor Einspach, along with Dr. Barbara Czapolai, returned to the art market with a new exhibition space. Einspach & Czapolai Fine Art, located at Batthyány’s sanctuary lamp, opened in spring 2021 and offers a distinctive sense of quality in the gallery scene of the capital, with its nearly six-metre high ceilings, its rooms renovated with monumental care, its huge street-front glass surfaces and its unique interior design, which combines Lajos Kozma’s huge wardrobe, icons of modern design, and even the 14th century Gothic Madonna from Burgundy. Einspach & Czapolai Fine Art’s broad commercial profile includes classics of post-war art as well as young contemporary artists, painting, sculpture, ceramics, and photography. The gallery regularly participates in prestigious international art fairs such as Paris Photo and Frieze Masters London.

As a returning exhibitor at this year’s Art & Antique fair, Einspach & Czapolai Fine Art presents a selection that creates an engaging dialogue between the classics of the Hungarian neo-avant-garde and outstanding figures of contemporary figurative painting.

The exhibiting artists include key representatives of the Hungarian neo-avant-garde—among them István Nádler, associated with the Iparterv exhibitions—as well as major figurative painters such as László Fehér, Károly Kelemen, and Tamás Soós. The middle and younger generations are represented by, among others, the artist duo Muntean/Rosenblum, Zsolt Bodoni, Gábor Király, Gábor Fülöp, Tamás Melkovics, Gábor Pap, and Dániel Kármán.

Contemporary abstract tendencies are represented by works by István Haász and Tamás Jovanovics, while the field of photography is represented by images from Tamás Dezső’s Romania series.

A special highlight of this year’s stand is the presentation of a previously unseen work by Amerigo Tot, as well as a commemorative room dedicated to the oeuvre of Gyula Sugár (1924–1991), conceived as a separate interior. This memorial space draws attention to the artist’s lesser-known yet highly compelling works.
