ZSOLT BERSZÁN
-
Zsolt Berszán developed in the last decade one of the most intriguing artistical discourses. Born in 1974 in Transylvania, he started his career at the end of the 1990s, after finishing his studies at the Cluj University of Arts and Design, Romania. Zsolt Berszán is concerned in the framework of his artistic projects toward the development of large installations appealing from the intrusion of science and technology. Black silicon becomes a leitmotif of his work. It is known that modern science sees the life system as silicon-based an alternative to the life system based on carbon. Silicium is the second element of the Earth's crust after oxygen, which is less reactive than carbon. Silicium is a constituent of silicon. Silicone is a mixed polymer organic-inorganic that has in its composition, oxygen, carbon and hydrogen. One of his most extensive and major solo exhibitions was held in 2010, "Project Genesis" at MODEM - Modern and Contemporary Art Center, Debrecen, Hungary; followed by solo shows in Berlin, in 2016 ―Dissecting the Unknown‖ and 2017 ―Substratum‖ at Anaid Art Gallery. Installations, objects and large paintings were on display in the solo exhibition "Decomposition" held as a parallel event to Venice 'Biennale of Architecture' in 2014, at the Royal Rowing Association (Reale Società Cantottieri Bucintoro) exhibition space. Also, key participation was in the group show "European Travellers - Art from Cluj Today" in 2012 organized by Műcsarnok / Kunsthalle Budapest Museum of Contemporary Art in Hungary, where the artist Zsolt Berszán submitted four large-scale drawings and two concrete sculptures. In 2016, he takes part, with a sitespecific installation, at ART CAPITAL, Szentendre, Hungary. Zsolt Berszán is represented by Anaid Art Gallery since 2010.
