About the Item

Pal Kepenyes is a sculptor and researcher of Hungarian art, whose artistic production includes sculptures of small and medium format, jewelry and miniature decorative pieces, all made by hand, without any machinery. He began his studies at the School of Decorative Arts in Budapest, and then was a prisoner of war during the Stalinist regime. In 1956, at the end of the Hungarian Revolution, he finally was released and left the country for Paris, where he studied at the School of Fine Arts. In 1956, he also traveled to Mexico, a country to which he has been devoted for tthe rest of his life because of his attraction pre-hispanic cultures. Mexico also has exerted great influence on his work. Measures: 17.5" long.
