One of the leading figures in geometric art, Gizella Rákóczy, explored the movements and serial possibilities of four-armed spirals from 1976 onwards. In later years, she created watercolor paintings in which she began layering tones of transparent paint using the Fibonacci sequence formula.
The short documentary, prepared by the artist's daughter, Anna Rákóczy, offers a closer look at Gizella Rákóczy's artistic legacy and lesser-known personal world. It includes contributions from art historian Mónika Zsikla, painter Győző Somogyi, and art historian and curator Krisztina Szipőcs.
*This film will be screened alongside the documentary “Vera Molnár, plaisir de géométrie”.

The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
