He was born on March 1, 1963 under the sun sign of Pisces, in Budapest.

He began his studies in fine art as Erno Fischer´s private student, then continued learning at the Department of Graphics at the Sorbonne University, meanwhile also studying in Hungary at the Department of Hungarian Language and Literature and History of the Eotvos Lorand University.

He was twenty years old when he opened his first exhibition in the French capital, where he made an exclusive contract with Galeria Art 3000, of which gallery he later became the managing art director and co-proprietor in 1986.

From the beginning of the 80´s to present day he has organized more than 170 exhibitions in Hungary, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, France, Great-Britain, Spain, Russia and the United States.

At present he is living and working in Madrid and managing the contemporary Spanish-Hungarian Foundation he established, the Fundación Apoyo el Arte.

We can see a number of his works in national collections, on the walls of institutions and contemporary museums.

During his career 10 of his books have been published, nearly a hundred publications released, and we can see the reproductions of his work in graphic, ceramic creations and in other publications and on front pages as well.
