Áron Baráth has been consistently representing abstract painting in Hungary since his career began in the 2000s. His non-figurative works, based on lyrical gestures, radiate translucent, vivid colour harmonies. Born in Novi Sad, Áron Baráth moved to Budapest with his family because of the South Slavic war. He also completed his art studies here, graduating as a graphic designer from the Hungarian University of Fine Arts in 2006. He soon left graphics – which he chose following the family tradition – for painting. After his early attempts at figurative painting at university, he began his career as an abstract painter in the mid-2000s. The free, improvisational gestures of informalism, the broad brushstrokes applied with one or two colours were close to his stylistic world. His early paintings were characterised by dramatic splashes of colour and vivid contrasts of colour, often building on the gloom of black. The wild gestures have been tamed by the 2010s, filled with melodic harmonies, and wide, translucent blurs, stripes and washed-out fields have taken over from monochrome surfaces. His aesthetic language is an inspiring parallel to the fine dining gastronomy served with Japanese minimalism, which he has also evoked as an installation. His compositions are built up from the spontaneous, glazed main motifs and the overlapping colour harmonies of the different coloured backgrounds, which often function as picture frames. Baráth's paintings are very popular and he has had many opportunities to exhibit around the world, from Belgium to Dallas. He lives and works in Budapest. Gábor Rieder
