Abstract

István Bors, one of the most prominent sculptors in Somogy county, died in 2003, at the age of 65. He played an important role in the contemporary sculpture: breaking away from the traditional ways of art, he pioneered new methods which eventually changed his ways of expression. He explored the different geographical and chronological dimensions of art, meanwhile discovering world of prehistoric art, folklore, village art and crafts and children’s drawing. The new forms he learned were applied in his works boundlessly. A part of his heritage was placed in the care of the Rippl-Rónai Museum. The collection consists of about 200 pieces, including his studio’s equipment, his preliminary sketches, the wax and clay moulds, plaster casts, reliefs and negatives. The present study aims to survey this collection: by identifying dating and categorizing the pieces it prepares the foundation for a monograph of a significant artist.
