Press Release

Igor Eugen Prokop creates sumptuously colored images created with an unusual pairing of mixed media and acrylic on glass or canvas. These are incredibly energetic works, grasping our awareness and plunging us into a spectacular, glittering cosmos. The flesh and bone of each image is color and line, but applied by the artist in a nearly psychedelic arrangement in high fidelity. Radiant variations of canary and crimson attract our eye and spin us into cool, mysterious areas dominated by violet and cerulean, the integrity of each hue maintained by a crisp outline. Cryptic titles lend a clue to the meaning behind each work, yet Prokop desires that we experience his work on an individual basis. "I am presenting some fragments from the endless world and giving them to the spectators with love."

Travel has been indispensable for Prokop’s inspiration. From the crystalline Caribbean waters to the legendary Polynesian seas, he has sought out the ephemeral, spiritual qualities that exist within our material world. Prokop lives in Visegrád, Hungary.


Artist Statement

I am Hungarian but my art cannot be restricted by geographical boundaries. I have traveled round the world and know: it is small and fragile! My inspirations are being on the road, observing and painting off the experiences imbued and seeing them revived on the canvas. I love the sea, the grass in the meadows, animals, and the animate and inanimate world; the material. Am I a narrow-minded materialist? No, definitely not. The spirit is non-material but the material is the worldly realization of the spirit. I studied Biology and drawing and wandered the world. I devoured beauty, the wonders of nature, got to know men and myself. I perceive the world through the eyes of a scientist and an artist and try to interpret and reproduce it.
