ISBN: 963 212 437 5
Publisher: Kieselbach, Tamás
Published: Budapest, 2004
Price: 19 800 HUF
The present collection is the second volume of the comprehensive work, which is a presentation of a century of Hungarian painting. The first volume, Modern Hungarian Painting 1892-1919 - published last year - was awarded the 'Beautiful Hungarian Book of 2003' prize.
The second volume presents Hungarian painting from 1919 to 1964, a period characterized by an enormous richness, complexity and multiplicity. The works are arranged by an intentional, purposeful, systematic approach based on uncompromising principles.
More than 1500 paintings have been selected by Tamás Kieselbach - art historian, collector and dealer in art - from 70 museums in Hungary and abroad and some 180 private collections. The uniquely valuable reproductions are not mere illustrations. They take on the leading role in the book. The history of modern Hungarian painting speaks through the works themselves in a book that is primarily aimed at the eye. The history emerges from the choice of paintings, their positioning, sequencing and the visual experience they offer. Nothing is by chance or happenstance.
The essays, that have been especially written for this collection, are meant to add up to a history of modern Hungarian painting. The authors represent a sensitive, critical approach, a variety of individual viewpoints - leaving room for differences of opinion. Most paintings are reproduced here for the first time, as yet unknown concealed or hidden to the public eye. Their publication might prove to be a striking disclosure for the uninitiated and the expert alike. This work will establish itself as a uniquely valuable, informative account of modern Hungarian painting.
The simultaneous edition of the two volumes in English presents an opportunity to bring Hungarian painting to favourable international notice. The editor believes that that Hungarian painting deserves to be better known and to attain its befitting status similarly to other fields of Hungarian culture: film, music, photo and literature.

BEAUTIFUL HUNGARIAN BOOK 2003 AWARD
ISBN: 963 212 436 7
Publisher: Kieselbach, Tamás
Published: Budapest, 2003
Price: 19 800 HUF
The present comprehensive work in two volumes standing independently (Volume I. 1892 - 1919; Volume II. 1919 - 1964) is a presentation of a century of Hungarian painting - rejecting all compromise. It is no exaggeration to say the painting of the last one hundred years has never been examined on this scale before. Contrary to the Western part of the world most private collections in Hungary - due to the social changes of recent years - are in steady motion and unbroken progress. Therefore Tamás Kieselbach (born in 1964) the well-known collector and dealer in art is familiar with them. The book involved a gigantic process, selecting and photographing from the entire holdings of Hungarian public collections (61 museums), charting private collections (146), seeking out Hungarian works in public collections abroad and shifting through the auctions of the last decade. From the study and selection of something like 70,000 came the 2,000 paintings which appear in these two volumes.
Art historian, collector and dealer in art - all three activities opened up the richness of Hungarian painting for Tamás Kieselbach and in this work he has reproduced numerous masterpieces , as yet unknown, concealed or hidden to the public eye.
The essays that have been especially written for this selection by established art historians, help foreign readers to gain a deeper understanding of the paintings and artists, of the trends and the problems of the period.
As a result of the inventive selection, the quality of reproductions, the proper graphic design and execution we can witness an unprecedented achievement.
It is no exaggeration to say that the most beautiful and exciting reading of the history of modern Hungarian painting will emerge from the pages of this book.
