Pal Homonaj (1922-2010)
è nato nel 1922 a Irig. Dipinge dal 1965.Viene da un ambiente artigiano urbano. Di professione falegname, si è dedicato saltuariamente anche all'intarsio. Alla pittura ha cominciato a dedicarsi nell'età matura. E' un pittore di lirici paesaggi immaginari, i paesaggi delle dolci colline della Fruska Gora, dove ha trascorso l'infanzia, da egli stilizzati. Su una superficie piana bidimensionale aprospettica egli inserisce le forme una sull'altra verticalmente, delimitandole con l'arco simbolico della collina del Sirmio. Il suo mondo è a un tempo arcaico e moderno e vive in uno spazio cronologicamente indeterminato. I personaggi e la trama del fatto si accentrano spesso, nella composizione, al vertice del colle, ed assumono determinate qualità di sogno. Sebbene sia ispirato dal ricordo delle scene e dei paesaggi rurali, Homonaj è completamente alieno dal folklore e dalla narrazione. Discreti e semplici, i suoi quadri hanno la grazia di un silenzioso canto solitario. Il pittore si esprime sempre in tonalità delicate, da pastello.Muore il 6 dicembre 2010 a Kecskemét (Ungheria).
was born in 1922 in Irig. He paints since 1965.
He comes from a craftsman city. Carpenter by profession, has also devoted time to time all'intarsio. Began to devote himself to painting in maturity. It 'a painter of lyrical imaginary landscapes, landscapes of rolling hills of Fruska Gora, where he spent his childhood, he stylized. On a flat two-dimensional shapes aperspectival he puts one on vertically, bounded by the arc of Sirmium symbolic of the hill. His world is at once archaic and modern living in a permanent place chronologically. The characters and the plot often center around the fact, in the composition, at the top of the hill, and take on certain qualities of a dream. Although inspired by the memory of the scenes and rural landscapes, Homonaj is entirely alien from folklore and storytelling. Discrete and simple, his paintings have the grace of a silent, solitary song. The painter is always expressed in soft colors, from pastels.He died December 6, 2010 in Kecskemét (Hungary).
