Árpád Szenes

The museum and foundation building in Lisbon

Árpád Szenes (also French: Árpád Szenès; May 6, 1897, Budapest – January 16, 1985, Paris) was a Hungarian-Jewish abstract painter who worked in France.[1]

He and the Portuguese-French painter Maria Helena Vieira da Silva married in 1930 and became French citizens in 1956.[1] The Árpád Szenes-Vieira da Silva Foundation, which was inaugurated in November 1994 and is located in Lisbon, houses a museum that prominently features both artists' works.[1]
