Hungarian Dancers

Exhibition Opening titled

Hungarian Dancers by Michael Milburn Foster

at The National Dance Theatre

in Budapest on Wednesday

Gallerist Ari Kupsus organised the event

The official opening by

the Financial Director of the Dance Theatre,

gallerist Ari Kupsus with translator,

Dr Judit Mandy who made an excellent speech

telling about the works of the artist

and the artist himself Michael Milburn Foster

By the way the 4 paintings on the background

will continue to Paris after this exhibition!

The artist had been working as a film director

in Hollywood for 30 years

The artist wanted to capture the movements

- he videoed dancing and chose 3 still pictures

of the movement and painted them in one painting

always leaving out some essential body parts

As Judit Mandy told in her speech

Matisse has said that changing one colour in a painting

changes the whole painting

- like in these paintings with 

different background colour

The title Hungarian Dancers

suits well as the exhibition is held in

Dance Theatre and the models were

Hungarian dancers

- unfortunately the dancers themselves couldn't

attend the opening ceremony

as they're in Chicago at the moment  

Dr Judit Mandy and Michael Milburn Foster

- the artist had been working 

as a film director in Hollywood for 30 years

The movement is seen perfectly

in a distance.
