Recently, Csaba Uglár has been painting on pages from the catalogue of the Phillips auction house. The catalogue pages feature reproductions of high value artworks by superstars of the international art scene, including their technical parameters and estimated value. Uglár’s painterly interventions augment the original reproductions, apostrophising or reinterpreting the presented works. The artist’s gesture is an acerbic critique of the extremities of the art market, with special regard to the fact that in his case, the choice of medium also stems from his precarious situation.
