At the Art and Antique 2025 fair, Rechnitzer Gallery presents the works of Anna TÁNCOS.
Anna TÁNCOS (1992) is an architect who also paints, graffiti, ceramics and is always on the lookout for architectural forms and the oddities of people. But it all comes together: what inspires her and how she creates. He often wanders off to the landscapes where Csontváry visited, where the earth still hides Etruscan vases, but he is not interested in the cool beauty of marble, but in its ruins, where teenage boys in gangs listen to trap music. He is captivated not by the exposed pedestal of the classic Apollo torso but by its plastic souvenir, not by the baroque facade of Il Gesu but by the crumbling plaster of the pre-modern orange facades of Garbatella's suburban experiment, and is inspired more by the metaphysical paintings of De Chirico than by the star architects of post-modernism. These are mirrored in the transcendent ruins of his landscapes, his crystalline flower portraits under neon twilights and his statues of graces, with their crooked backs, struggling to hold the weight of ceramic bowls.
