DIGITAL ART AND APPLIED ART
DIGITAL ART
This idea came to be used in the 1990s. It covers digital painting and digital transformation of the subject of the photographs and the pictures.
To me videos with artistic subjects should here be included.
As an individual genre, digital art is very near to graphic design.
Art is a „reflection of the reality”, filtered by the artist’s fantasy.
Art stimulates emotion. It arouses our esthetic and moral sensibility and is interpreted through them.

ART AND APPLIED ART
Applied art was the cradle for many world famous artists.
Advertising graphics are draughtsmanships of this applied art.
While the traditional work of art flows spontanously from the artist’s soul, the visual components of advertising graphics must be used very consciously.
It is not a coincidence that the 20th and the 21st centuries were full of artists who started their careers as commercial artists, like Viktor Vasarely, Andy Warhol, Sándor Bortnyik and others.
As an artist I also grew up on this.
Nowadays I mostly deal with these topics in film.
In the focus point most frequently stands transcendency, "ubiety in being somewhere", rejuvenation, revival, and the idea of "another world”.
With my graphics I do not simply reflect reality, but attempt to transcend it.
”I can see with my soul.”
