I was two years old when my father, returning from a business trip in Switzetland brought me a ballpoint pen as a present. Ballpoint is a tool that can not be erased and thus one must be able to draw a line right the first time over. Thus my education in fine art art begun.
At primary school I attended high-school drawing classes and art history. I was advised on various subjects such as anatomy and the likes.
At high school I attended to the prestiguous Ferenczy Circle, a highly esteemed class on drawing and modelling for the nearby Academy of Fine Arts.
After graduating high school I attended and graduated a special collage on printshop work, thus learning the basics of additive and subtractive colouring and all other details that makes one a printshop retoucher.
I was 20 when, in 1984, my first own exhibit, The Gate Between Within and Beyond opened. Shortly after I found the name for the original style I created: Transrealism
At the same time I got involved in Duna Circle, an alternative environmental protection group opposing a water-dam over the river Danube. This, later I earned me a high spot on the blacklists of Communist Hungary.
Despite being blacklisted and secret agents were regular visitors the following years each brought feature exhibits Withdrawn Promises (1985), La Malade Imaginaire (1987), and a joint exhibit with the master course of world-known concert pianist George Cziffra.
As my mail was torn, telephone evesdropped and conditions became unbearable to express my disagreement with the regime I left Hungary in early 1988
Having learned the local language in 1990 I was accepted to the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design.
20 years of silence followed while I adventured around the world trying myself in various fields and professions.
Today, back in Hungary, I am painting again.
If you like my work please do take your time to comment on what you like in it and what it makes you feel like. Any feedback is appreciated because a piece of art if not communicating is probably not worth creating.
