Pistyur Imre: Litogenezis (Szentendre, 2011)
IMRE PISTYUR Sculptor H-2000, Szentendre, Egres út 87. 06 26 313-764 • 06 20 913-8589 pistyurimre@freestart.hu • www.pistyurimre.fw.hu I was born in Csobánka in 1953. Fine arts appealed to me since my childhood. From 1967 I was permanently in touch with the aquarellist Sándor Szaióky (1921-1978) and the painter Károly Szegvári. I participated in the activities of the artist circle of the cultural centre in Szentendre between 1970 and 1976 under the guidance of János Pirk and Sándor Markó. Between 1976 and 19781 visited the artist circle of Károly Koffán Jn. in Dunaújváros. I make an example of the sculptor Dezső Mészáros what concerns the treatment of stone and the respect for stone. I am engaged in both painting and sculpting. From 20001 rather carve sculptures. The focus of my art is on humán virtues and weaknesses. "I am confident that my working is a timeless message evoked by stones. Being a parallel world, in which the reality is present in every aspect of the depiction." 2002 Member of MAOE; fine arts department, sculptor seetion 2002 Member of the Hungárián Sculptors Society 2003 Member of the Graphie Workshop Szentendre COLLECTIVE EXHIBITIONS (selection) 1972 Szentendre, BVM Culture room Szentendre, Dunapart Culture Centre - Autumn exhibition of the art circle 1973 Csobánka - Pub Exhibition 1974 Budapest, Culture Centre of the Capital Szentendre Autumn exhibition 1975 Szentendre Autumn exhibition 1976 Dunaújváros, Munkás Culture Centre 1977 Szentendre, Jubilee Exhibition of the Art Circle PMKK 2000 Szentendre, Exhibition of Pest county 2001 Szentendre Exhibition 2002 Exhibition of Pest county 2003 Budapest, Duna Gallery; Budapest, Vigadó Gallery; Plastic Art of Szentendre, ArtMill; Szentendre, Skanzen Gallery 2004 Budapest, Zichy castle (Finnish-Hungarian) 2005 Budapest, Gaál Imre Gallery Spring exhibition - I.
