Hungarian-born, London-based artist Szabolcs Bozó is showcasing his third solo exhibition with Almine Rech at its Tribeca location in New York. In Tüke, Bozó debuts a series of vibrant new paintings that revisit themes of childhood in wondrous flurries of color and enigmatic zoomorphic characters.

Life, many times, doesn’t follow a linear path. It certainly wasn’t the case for Bozó, who was breakdancing his way across mainland Europe, eventually landing across the channel in London where he worked at a restaurant while experimenting with drawing early iterations of his scribbly figures. This was around 2012 and as chance would have it, Bozó’s work aroused the interest of a prominent Spanish gallerist who reached out to him and offered an artist residency in Mallorca. Since then, the Hungarian artist has exhibited across the world, from the WOAW Gallery in Hong Kong to the Palazzo Cavanis in Venice.

Bozó latest works draw from traditional Hungarian folklore, such as the Busójárás festival, in which people wear horns, masks and animals skins as a way to usher in the coming of spring. “I used to say that instead of Cubism, I represent the Cuteism movement,” Bozó said about his work in a past interview. Tüke will be on view in New York until August 2, 2024.
