lives in Szentendre. Between 1988 and 1992 he was a member of the Studio of Young Artists. 1994:
Festival of Arts in New Democracies, Montreal; 1997: Study Aboriginal Painters, Australia. Lajos Vajda’s 1937-40 charcoal and ink traces, Géza Samu’s prehistoric-archaic sculptures, the spirit of Béla Hamvas and the aboriginal art of Australian natives inspired the artist to investigate ancient vision, elemental pictorial writing, or universal magical sign language. Whether or not a Siberian cave drawing, an African mask, or an Australian “bark” has inspired him, Orbán is a sign of a total cultic-sacral language. His stickmen, primate and reindeer make him the heir of that tradition, which has been due to the interest of modernity in Primitive Tribal Art by the Gaudin of Tahiti, the Picasso inspired by African masks or the surrealists visiting ethnographic collections. The painter of the aboriginal painting, the black, the ocher, the red and the “sacred white” painter in 1982-92 worked with charcoal, with Indian ink and pastel, and discovered the expressive atmosphere, but the elements with elemental geometric decorative elements, rich in fatty acrylic -membered painting that still characterizes his works. Since 1998, he has been a technical innovator for a copper plate, which he thinks is better suited to expanding the imaginary space concept.
