MEADOWLANDS — GERGELY SZATMÁRY


curated by Enrico Stefanelli
in collaboration with Faur Zsófi Gallery

Meadowlands is a region and a sports and entertainment complex in New Jersey, close to the Hackensack river. Our age’s United States of America is very different than what the filmmakers’ fictive worlds show. There is a clear analogy with the tendencies of the last two decades of the 19th century, the turning from reality and the strengthening of Symbolism. Although the causes were different, the urge arised from the frustration: the desire for liberty, fraternity, equality has not been fulfilled.
