Mária Geszler: Actor with aircrafts

The Vitalitas Gallery was founded in 2001 to give free play for creatures, art historian exhibition organizers in order to gauge how the works of art comes across in a flat-imitating environment. The aim of the founders was still to contribute the artistic development of Szombathely and its region with high quality exhibitions and to support the creators living in Vas county getting into the public eye with their works. In the gallery the exhibitions of hopeful talented and already known creators and guards of the ancestral traditions and experimenters of new fields open every two months. In the periods between the exhibitions you can buy the dignified works of art, so many became the patrons of contemporary art.
