Artist Bio

Csilla Orban’s cityscapes hold a distinct place in today’s art market. While they capture specific and often recognizable locations, their true brilliance lies in the atmosphere she creates rather than in meticulous detail. By blending colors and softening the reflections on rain-soaked streets, Csilla masterfully conveys the dynamic essence of her subjects in a style uniquely her own.

Born in Budapest, Hungary, in 1961, Csilla graduated with a Master’s Degree in Art from the University of Budapest in 1984. She furthered her studies with a year-long scholarship in the former USSR. After spending much of her twenties exploring Europe, she eventually made the UK her home.

Her experiences with diverse cultures fueled her artistic inspiration, with Paris, in particular, sparking her imagination. She was captivated by the city’s intimate cafes, grand boulevards, and bohemian lifestyle.

Since 1996, Csilla has been a member and co-secretary of the Hungarian group of the Parisian Independent Salon, where she has helped several emerging artists gain recognition in the Hungarian art scene.

Csilla’s artistic philosophy is to paint ‘faithfully and with humanity.’ She has exhibited internationally, and in 2004, she was awarded the ‘Genius Talent Prize’ in Budapest during an exhibition celebrating Hungary’s entry into the European Union.

After spending six months in the USA, Csilla participated in a joint exhibition of contemporary painters in Texas in June 2006, which helped her gain broader international recognition.
