Martin Pap
Symbols of fertility and recognizable lines
Martin Pap was recognisable by the specific style in which the contour lines, were the key elements of his compositions. His art, often oversized gourds, pumpkins, and corn, were symbols of prairie fertility, which in his paintings are revived with expressive strength. With that, cracked amphorae and convincing portraits of famous figures make the basis of his creations, giving them deep symbolic and emotional weight. Pap has created paintings that are a join of major elements and human figures displaying a connection between tradition, everyday life, and culture.
