Prominent representative of non-professional fine arts in Slovakia. His carving works were presented at an exhibition in Bratislava and Zvolen in 1985. By his expression, he drew attention at exhibitions organized by cultural centers. He also presented at a Symposium in Východná, and as part of the concept Carved into Wood in 1987, he introduced his works in the showcases of the amphitheater. He is not a typical carver who follows intuition, as he masters the craft technique of working with wood. He belongs to knowledgeable authors. He studied for two years at a carving school in Banská Štiavnica and expanded his artistic knowledge in art circles. He approaches his work with a premeditated intention. For most of his subjects, he preferred stylization of the figure’s shape. His characteristic is the depiction of essential facial features and the use of attributes rather than overly descriptive focus on details, as well as a predominance of the rational component. His aim is to achieve perfection in mastering the proportions of the portrayed human body and in good composition of the chosen subject. His works thematically relate to the rural environment, occupations, and crafts; he also has works with bandit themes and several subjects from the Slovak National Uprising. Motifs from agricultural and viticultural work often appear. The sculptures Woman with a Bunch of Grapes and Vintner, carved from poplar wood under the open sky at the Symposium in Východná in 1981 and 1984, are direct evidence of the environment where the author comes from and where he creates. However, neither of them has been preserved. In addition to other works, there is a similar sculpture of a Vintner in the Historical Museum of SNM. The figure is dressed in a long apron, holding a jug in the left hand and a cup in the right hand, raising it to the lips. The head is slightly inclined. A wine barrel lies by the right foot. The reduced expressive elements indicate the artist’s certainty in depicting specific figures, capturing their gestures, while striving to highlight their characteristics. Even the environment he depicts is familiar to him. Through a filter, the author confronts his ideas with reality. In 1983, he obtained a certificate of qualification as a master of folk art production in wood production, awarded by the Commission for evaluating the professional competence of workers in folk art production.
