Vera Székely

By Mthieu Buard and Daniel Léger

After training as a graphic designer in Hungary, the plastic artist Vera Sz kely (1919-1994), a member of the Sz kely-Borderie ceramicist collective, tackled work in clay, metal, wood and glass to reach her artistic fulfillment in textiles.

From this point on, Vera Sz kely acknowledged "swimming and dancing in space to leave a trace in it" with her ephemeral installations of bent felt, her stretched canvas structures and "braced sails" that would be exhibited throughout the world, notably at the Biennale internationale de la tapisserie, Lausanne (1981) the Mus e national d'art moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou (1982), the Mus e d'art moderne de la ville de Paris (1985), the Lunds Konsthall, Sweden (1988).
