Berény Róbert.

So I just got back from my holiday in the HU. It was wonderful. I found lots of Hungarian artists at the Hungarian National Gallery that I had never heard of before. I actually took down 28 names to research! Here is one of my favourites from the trip; Berény Róbert (1887-1953). He went to Paris and even to Berlin between 1919-1926. He is most famous for his portrait of Béla Bartók but I want to find out more about him and 'The Eight', the first avant-garde artistic group in Hungary. They are not on English Wiki so I'll have to search them up elsewhere.

József Rippl-Rónai.

I'll be heading to Budapest again on the 5th January. I want to go see the Buda Castle Labyrinth and the Hungarian National Gallery this time. I just hope I get to see the work of József Rippl-Rónai (1861-1927).
