“Albert
György was born in 1949 in Lueta, Romania (Transylvania, a region with a
Hungarian minority). The sculptor's career is marked by a double human and
artistic adventure, which has always been a sort of tension between contrary
aspirations...
“He
creates his own foundry to obtain the best bronze quality. But despite his
travels abroad for his exhibitions in Warsaw, Berlin, ex-Yugoslavia, Chile, he
lives in isolation [and] sadness [when his first wife died]…
“Albert
György's work illustrates the tension between character and emotion. Nothing is
acquired; nothing comes automatically. Creation is a struggle, both material
and spiritual. If today his works reflect a new impetus, they remain marked by
a pathetic temperament, [and] by a fiery sensitivity…
“In
its complexity and diversity, the visionary art of Albert György testifies to a
personal dialectic between suffering and happiness: nothing decorative or
talkative in this game of creative tension leading to a living alloy imbued
with the purest necessity” (Albert György Biography).
"We may look as if we carry on with our lives as before. We may even have times of joy and happiness. Everything may seem ‘normal.’ But THIS ‘Emptiness’ is how we all feel...all the time”-John Maddox on Facebook.

ReplyDeleteFlow down, cold rivulet, to the sea,
Thy tribute wave deliver:
No more by thee my steps shall be,
For ever and for ever.
Flow, softly flow, by lawn and lea,
A rivulet then a river:
Nowhere by thee my steps shall be
For ever and for ever.
But here will sigh thine alder tree
And here thine aspen shiver;
And here by thee will hum the bee,
For ever and for ever.
A thousand suns will stream on thee,
A thousand moons will quiver;
But not by thee my steps shall be,
For ever and for ever.
