1994. Ferdinand Zweig Scholarship. This scholarship enabled me to travel extensively through out Hungary and Romania, recording a series of video and audio-tape interviews with contemporary artists. A resulting one hour video documentation titled "Denied An Audience" was presented publicly and is now housed at the Falmouth College of Arts Library.
Clarissa Beöthy is a full member of the Newlyn Society of Artists, the Plymouth Society of Artists, the Falmouth Art Club and the "ArtActs" organisation. She is also Associate member of the Penwith Gallery. She was short listed for S.W.A. award in 2001, and awarded a residency in Morocco for three months from October 2002.
Languages : Hungarian, German, English.
Clarissa’s formative years were shaped by the conflict of an old world, cultured and religious family trapped in the hands of a new repressive authoritarian Eastern European Comunist regime. Her fate sometimes decided by the trigger of a gun in her face, sometimes by committee decisions blocking education in favour of heavy metalwork.
These personal reference points provide an extremely sharp focus to her investigation of the limitations, both spiritually and materially, that we place on our lives.
Her insights are made more urgent by being a stranger in a strange land. The effect has been to free her spirit and refine her powers of observation. As an outsider she can navigate and articulate ideas with clarity and precision. |
