2. ÁRPÁD FORGÓ “LOOKING ROUND A DIFFERENT CORNER”
Artist ÁRPÁD FORGÓ will exhibit his artwork titled “Looking Round a Different Corner” this
November at the Anya Tish Gallery. All of his pieces displayed give off what the artist calls
“illusory drift” which goes well with the Avant Garde-themed movement. Forgó constructs
subtly kinetic paintings and shaped canvases that embody the concepts of cardinality, unity,
division and plasticity.

3. “FINDING OUR WAY,” made visible with a camera #findingourwayhouston
Currently on view, “Finding Our Way” is a photographic installation designed by
MARY MARGARET HANSEN and PATSY CRAVENS, using images from a trove of
nude photographs the two photographers took of one another in the early 1980s.
Be inspired by beautiful photographs that convey confinement, flight, freedom and
moving on.
