The following is from the artist's website:
"Since the early 90s, I’ve been making traditional oil-canvas paintings. As a starting point, I often use media images, newspaper cut-outs, postcards, film-stills. When painting, I concentrate on such high density moments, when our everyday experiences and viewing practices become obsolete while decoding. I create empty spaces around the objects of thoughts and figures without defining them in a preconceived notion. It is the distance and the concentrated attention on absence that rules my relationship with painting. What I am most interested in is the search of interpretation of knowing and not-knowing, the way they are able to extinguish one another. I collect inspiration from the rubbish of collective memory, which I then re-interpret through the reality of painting. I attempt to dissolve the already defined and often false structures, and introduce new types of looking in a peculiar formal and compositional levitation, where the paintings’ vacuum-like state partially originates in the loneliness of represented elements, and partially from the transformation of metaphysical into universal.

In the last ten years the Hungarian painter Attila Szűcs has classified himeslf among the strong group of painters from Eastern Europe which could establish on the European and repeatedly on the international art scene. Szucs‘s work is based on his sophisticated technique, but in the first place, he is a painter of unprecedented imagination and sensitivity. In his paintings he often works with unexpected phenomena and realities, which involve the spectator in the center of the happening. Attila Szűcs has exhibited in a range of major cities in Germany, Italy, Austria and in New York. On the occasion of the exhibition "Specters and Experiments," which was organized in 2016 by the Ludwig Museum in Budapest, a monography was published. Attila Szűcs is quite rightly considered as one of the most fundamental figures in Eastern Europe, represented in various private collections in the whole world.
