STARK ATTILA

Attila Stark is a Budapest-based artist. He studied graphics and illustration, although among his works we can find murals, paintings, and publications as well. He also had his own visual albums published by Roham and Symposion. His fanzines and screen prints can be found at comic book festivals both in Hungary and abroad. Through his works, we get to know his personal world, which at first was based on the metropolitan environment, but gradually, the characters and motifs developing there got into new situations. Despite being dangerous and difficult, this world is also funny and without any aesthetic boundaries or censorship, where absurdity takes over existential suffering. Perverted ponies, luscious creatures, Alfred Jarry, Raymond Roussel, William Burroughs and many others appear in his intelligent, yet brutally raw artworks. However, they don’t stay for long to avoid becoming victims of some hidden passion.
