About the Artist
More than any other form of human expression, art acts as a barometer indicating the quality of life of humanity in any given society.
In Attila J. Keszei view, the artist's dedication having been filtered through his emotional and mental make-up dictates his actions,
finding expression in literature, painting, sculpting, music and other art forms. This artistic expression becomes fruitful and meaningful only if it has an objective significance for the viewer.
Born in Hungary, sculptor Attila Keszei got the Degree in Mechanical Engineering in Budapest (1971).
In 1974 he Settled in Toronto and in the period 1976-86 teaches life-sculpting at the J.C.C. in Toronto.
