schMERZbuch

"She creates as nature. She knows no borders that bind her hands, she does not foster manners for which she would have to give up her liberty, and she does not care about forced search for originality. She prefers to be surprised by the synthesis of her own means of expression, which are so numerous that they resemble a vocabulary. She finds them in "graphobatics", "merzbrush" or other own artistic experiments. In her studio, nothing that is painted can go wrong. Nothing is thrown away. She is a perfect zero-waste artist. The rich visual language of Rita Koszorús has its natural rules. It does not matter if you hear Juan Gris scream or Kurt Schwitters whisper in it. SchMERZbilds live from the legacy of avant-garde, but they do not feed on it. Although her abstract photograms of László Moholy Nagy, utility design of František Tröster, Rita has shifted the essence of inter-war abstraction to her own lever, for which she does not have to feel ashamed. No tablet, no Photoshop and no pose. Just her and her million ideas. If the Cubists lved today, they would have come to her opening." Maroš Schmidt

This book compiles all the collages schMERZbild that the artist Rita Koszorús made from years 2019-2020 in various places she visited from Berlin to Liptovský Mikuláš.
