lítost

Keresztesi Botond (*1987) is a Romanian/Hungarian artist working in painting, drawing, and site-specific painting installations. Remixing references from Art History, popular culture, virtual space, and everyday life, his paintings crystalise into the fragmented realities of dream-like landscapes. Recent solo and group exhibitions have taken place at: Storage Capacité, Berlin; Damien & The Love Guru, Brussels; Kunstfort, Vijhuizen; Future Gallery, Berlin; Artkartell Project Space, Budapest; Labor Gallery, Budapest; Hungarian National Gallery, Budapest; and Schloss, Olso.

lítost is a contemporary art gallery and curatorial institute based in Prague’s Žižkov district. Our work stems from collaborations with invited curators, artists, writers, and researchers to produce a varied programme, new connections, and exchange. The programme redefines how space relates to cultural practitioners and proposes new methods for collaboration.
