Miklós Nagy is a collector of contemporary art. He belongs to the generation that first appeared on the art scene during the 2000s. His collection consists of more than 300 items: most of the are paintings and graphics, combined with some plastic works.


His affection to visual arts towards showed at a young age. Photography has been his passion for long, and his passion for collecting art is the extension of his approach to art he also represents in his photography art of special atmosphere. His is connected to the town of Kaposvár in various ways. Miklós Nagy began to work in Kaposvár after graduation. His father and son were also born in Kaposvár. Due to family circumstances he had to move to Nagyatád first, then to Győr. In Győr the example of Ernő Kolozsváry inspired him to get involved in art collecting. The first time Miklós Nagy felt the desire to own a work of art was after he saw a picture by Dezső Váli in 1997. His purchase was followed by many others that by now have resulted in an art collection of art history significance. In terms of the collection's spectrum, Nagy's interest span from figurative and surrealist works, to more constructive but at the same time transcendent imagery pictures. The interfaces of different directions represent quality works. The earliest items in his collection are by Lili Országh and Endre Bálint. History that connect the two artists, audio visual associations of spiritual residues of cultures falling to corruption start the collection of Nagy in a way which runs through the entire material, and determine the branches of which determine the main characters of the collection. The collection was created expressing the demand to monitor meditative state of mind noticing internal voice, that bridging a variety of temporal and spatial reality touches the kind of mystical atmosphere of alienation.


Od contemporary Hungarian artists, one of the sides is represented by works of El Kazovszkij.. Miklós Nagy is one of the most important collectors of the artist's works. He owns several of her works from various artistic periods. The life work of József Gaál is linked to Kazovszkij's sovereign tone, mythological and dramatic world . A whole series of expressive works by Gaál are about the dramatic aspects of human personality and destiny. Miklós Nagy is also connected to Gaal's through his experiences in medical research. Instinctive artistic truth about human life, the nature of biology naturally linked with the experience, which Miklós Nagy faced as a researcher and practitioner as well. József Szurcsik's typical monumental tableaux connects personal fate to mythic dimensions. The kind-of modernity of Eastern Europe modernity is ironically and grotesquely pictured by two artists from the Lajos Vajda Studio of Szentendre, Imre Bukta and fe Lugossy László. In addition to the other expressive image of man, the other dominant pole of the Miklós Nagy collection are floating mappings on the edge of lyrical abstraction and figurality involving works by Dezső Váli, Erzsébet Vojnich, Miklós Szüts and Tibor Nádor. Excellent examples of lyrical expressive non-figuration by artists of Iparterv generation are represented by István Nádler and Pál Deim Paul while a specific interpretation of figurativity raises Eszter Csurka or László Szotyory into a transcendent realm.
