The Tower of Babel 1961

"The Tower of Babel" by Endre Rozsda is an abstract painting created in 1961. The piece depicts a chaotic and fragmented landscape, with figures and structures seemingly merging and colliding. Rozsda's bold brushstrokes and use of contrasting colors create a sense of energy and movement. This artwork evokes a sense of the impossible, reflecting the story of the Tower of Babel, a Biblical tale of human ambition and its consequences. The painting's abstract nature invites interpretation and engages the viewer in a dialogue about the nature of communication and the challenges of unity.
