Historical Significance
As a painter, Csuri often tried to overcome what he felt was the brutal and mechanical feeling of three-dimensional computer graphics. In Brick Landscape, the artist used the scan of a photograph of bricks to bring warmth and texture to his work. Csuri suggests that Brick Landscapes floating, bricked sphere was influenced by Belgian Surrealist painter René Magrittes Castle in the Pyrenees (1959).
