JPEG file comment | NAGY István
(1873, Csíkmindszent - 1937, Baja) Kalapos fiúfej 1930 körül Pasztell, papír, 41 x 31 cm Deák gyûjtemény, Városi Képtár, Székesfehérvár Egyike legtalányosabb festõinknek. 1920 körül érkezik Erdélybõl Magyarországra. Rövid ideig Koszta József mellett dolgozik, de nem tud egy helyben maradni. Gyalogosan bejárja az Alföldet, a Dunántúlt, a Délvidéket, 1925 után Erdélybe is hazalátogat. Vándor életmódja Mednyánszkyval rokonítja, de ezen túl portréik szemléletében is van valami rokon: egyszerre mutatják be a típust és a karaktert. Nagy István az állandóságot, a szintézist kereste, rajzainak kontúrjai hangsúlyozott, szerkezetet kiemelõ, de nem kubisztikus. Fõleg a parasztságot rajzolja, ahonnan maga is származik. Munkásságának szellemisége kapcsolható a kor falukutató mozgalmaihoz, ideológiája a népi írókéhoz. A Kalapos fiú címû képén a kalap karimája alól riadt, gondterhelt fiatal szempár tekint ránk, azaz nem is ránk, hiszen a fiú a semmibe néz. A rejtõzködõ, fáradt tekintet arról beszél, hogy ez a gyerek már sok mindent megélt: szegénységet, éhezést, verést és játék helyett rengeteg munkát. NAGY, István (1873, Csíkmindszent - 1937, Baja) Hatted Head of a Boy c. 1930 Pastel on paper, 41 x 31 cm Deák Collection, Municipal Gallery, Székesfehérvár István Nagy is perhaps one of the most puzzling figures of Hungarian art. He left Transylvania for Hungary around 1920. He worked under József Kosza for a short time, but his personality was such that he could not stay in one place for any length time. He roamed around the Great Plain, Transdanubia and the sothern parts of Hungary on foot. He visited Transylvania after 1925. His wandering lifestyle links him Mednyánszky and their portraits have something in common, too: they depict tape and character at the same time. Nagy was in search of stability and synthesis. Contours in his pictures emphasize structure but they do not make his compositions cubist. He portrayed mostly peasant people as he was one of them. His art can be linked to rural sociology of the age and his ideology to that of peasant writers. In "Boy's Head with Hat", the eyes of a young man with a worried look gaze into nothing from under the rim of the hat. The tired look of the eyes tells the viewer that this child must have gone through a greatmany trialsand tribulations, poverty and hunger. Instead of playing, he must have worked very hard.
