English

Whereas in most of Gerzso's painting there are series of repoussoirs, always pushing the viewer back and away, yet luring him to the game of spying out openings into an inner sanctum, here the ambiguous scumble of smoke hovers in a space that is as vague and redolent of primal unform, as works of artists, such as the abstract expressionists, who rebelled against Platonic geometric figures and experienced the world as intensely ambiguous and non-formal. Gerzso has said that he has to find in his paintings an "inner quality" which, like any good painter, he steadfastly refuses to define in words.

Spanish

Si bien es cierto que en la mayor parte de las pinturas de Gerzso hay una serie de botadores2 o cercadores3 que siempre alejan al espectador a la vez que lo incitan a espiar por las aberturas el santuario interior, en esta obra la ambigua traza de humo flota en un espacio tan vago y evocador de la forma primigenia que nos hace recordar aquellos otros dicho que él busca en su pintura una "calidad interior" que, como sucede con todo buen pintor, se rehusa terminantemente a definir en palabras.
