Biography
The artist was born in Sopron in Hungary in 1926. He was a student of the Academy of Budapest and during the uprising in 1956 against Communism he escaped from Hungary to Vienna where he now lives and works.
He has become internationally known for his (typically East European style) "Naive" paintings depicting Village life in the four seasons in glorious color. Children especially like his works as each one tells a story.
He has exhibited in many Galleries throughout Europe, particularly in Munich, Vienna, Tokyo, and Harrods in London. His work has been on permanent exhibition at the Stewart Gallery branches and associated Galleries since around 1975.
