The cityscapes
of Csilla Orban occupy a unique position on the current art
market. Although they depict specific and often recognisable
locations, their particular brilliance lies in the creation of
atmosphere rather than the accuracy of detail. By merging colours
and blurring the reflected light in the rain-slicked streets,
Csilla conveys the fast-moving essence of her chosen subject in
her own distinctive way. Csilla was born in 1961 in Budapest,
Hungary. She graduated from the University of Budapest in 1984
with a Masters Degree in Art and followed this up with a year as a
scholarship student in the former USSR. After spending much of her
twenties travelling around Europe she finally settled in the UK.
