Istvan Csok

Similarly to the other young artists of his time, he studied at the academies of Budapest. Munich and Paris between 1882 - 1889. Hew painted his first great canvas. "Do This in Memory of Me (Holy Communion)" a year later, and "Orphans" was born in the next year. Both works scored a great success: he was awarded with a Gold Medal by the Paris Salon for the first one, and the second won him the Grand Prize of the Hungarian National Fine Art Society; both pictures were purchased by museums: the first by the Budapest Museum of Fine Arts, the second by the Hungarian National Museum.
Encouraged by the success of his exhibitions in Paris. Csók moved to the French capital in 1903. He lived there for seven years. After moving back to Budapest he depicted the city in numerous impressionistic paintings. These cityscapes and his nudes, portraits and landscapes of the Lake Balaton made him a distinguished artist, who was much celebrated all along his long career. His art was honored with several awards, among them the Kossuth Prize, which he won twice, he was a professor at the Budapest Academy of Fine Arts; he had exhibitions in Roma (1914), San Francisco (1917), London (1922), Pittsburg (1926) and three large individual exhibitions in Budapest (1914, 1935, 1955).

Barr, Timothy
1957-
Timothy Barr was born on January 23, 1957 in Harrisburg, PA. When he was still quite young, his mother, a gifted painter herself, introduced him to painting. Now, one of the world's most celebrated contemporary landscape painters, Timothy Barr continues the legacy of Luminism in a variation uniquely his own.

Barr's recognition of this legacy had its beginnings in 1978, when he attended Temple University's Tyler School of Art and dedicated himself to studying painting. By the late eighties, he began painting even more seriously, deciding to make his art his profession. He started to actively show his work in 1990, painting exclusively for Newman Galleries.

Now highly prolific, Barr has created more than three hundred paintings in the past decade alone. Known for his jewel-like landscape paintings of the Pennsylvania countryside, Martha's Vineyard, the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and the British Virgin Islands, Barr paints with a heightened sense of the relationship between color and light, infusing natural images with a serene and meditative radiance. His technique involves the layering of thin glazes over the painted surface to endow the painting with an actual physical glow. Barr's paintings, in their use of light to create structure and composition, are powerful examples of Luminism, an art movement begun by the artists Frederic Church and Albert Bierstadt before him. Like Church and Bierstadt as well, Barr's paintings reflect the art of the Barbizon School.
