 An interview with MANO (ArtistInfo, Spring, 2019)

Please describe your artwork style: Being in true love with our "Mother Nature" and environment I am keen to have them on my canvas in a realistic and colourful way.

What’s your background? As my interest in arts began quite early I started painting and drawing when I was young and earned later a degree in arts.

How long have you been an artist? For the past 35 years.

Who or what are your biggest influences? I highly respect and admire Hungarian plain-art painter Pal Szinyei-Merse (1845-1920), truly appreciate realism-style Hungarian painter Gyula Benczur (1844-1920) and love Spanish-Catalan surrealistic artist Salvador Dali (1904-1989). I have learned a lot and got tremendous inspiration from their works.

How have you developed your career? In the past decades I was invited to a number of exhibitions in collective with other painters and in solo, too. The first one took place during the Budapest Spring Festival in '87, followed by other art exhibitions in Stockholm, Budapest, Nyiregyhaza, Pecs (Hungary), Vienna, Tel Aviv, Szatmarnemeti (Romania) and Brussels.

Where do you create your work? I mainly paint within my own atelier, some times in the nature or to a less extent together with other artists in "painters’ camps".

What do you feel is the role of the artist in society? Our role is to take part in and making all efforts to improving society, to influence people in creating a much better world. 

In addition, l try to get my voice heard with the help of my paintings to support peace, protect "Mother Nature"  and the beautiful global environment.

What techniques / mediums do you use? I use oil and paint on canvas only.

Which is more important to you, the subject of your painting, or the way it is executed? I try to pay particular attention to characteristic details of my subjects and reflect feelings experienced in the nature but make all efforts to do it in my own characteristic way, too.

How do you feel when you are letting your emotions loose on the canvas? What project are you working on now? I am planning to paint modern Adam and Eva in Paradise

Any current or up-coming exhibitions? Hopefully, 2020 will see at least one major exhibition where my works have been invited to participate. Earlier this year I was awarded as one of ARTTOUR TOP 60 MASTERS - 2020 with a ceremony in the Italian Florence at Auditorium Al Duomo during May 2020. However, due to global pandemic this Award Ceremony and a related art exhibition were postponed to spring 2021. Regrettably, another exhibition planned in Tokyo Bellesalle Roppongi during the 6th Tokyo International Art Fair in June, 2020 was also postponed for the same reason to June 4-5, 2021. I plan to attend another one in New York at Grimandi Art Gallery (to be convened on September 16 - October 8, 2021.) Finally, I do hope to organise a big solo art exhibition in The Gallery Steiner located in the old town of Vienna, Austria (December 7 – January 2, 2021).

Where do you find your ideas for your work? All of them are around me!

Is there an artwork you are most proud of? Why? I am very much proud, among others, of my two big paintings (2 of the 13 pcs purchased by a museum in Hungary) one of them is based on a Finnish folk epos Kalevala.  This epic was later processed in the form of modern ballet, that inspired me.  The other one is based on Love in the time of Cholera, a famous novel by Columbian writer Gabriel Garcia Marques. Both artworks are montage-type of paintings deeply inspired by my favourite artist Salvador Dali.

                          

How do you know when a work is finished? When I feel an artistic satisfaction than the painting is ready.

What is your most important artist tool? Is there something you can’t live without in your studio? My easel, my pigskin and squirrel hair brushes, my Van Gogh type oil paints and canvas, of course, are the most important tools without which I couldn’t work.

Is there an element of art you enjoy working with most? Why? I like very much bright (vivid) oil colours making me and others cheerful and joyful.
