Biography

László Taubert was born in 1966 in Budapest. He attended the College of Fine Arts for seven years. The first three years consisted of classical sculptural studies, under the conduct of an older, well-educated master with figural tendencies. The following years gave room for Taubert's artistic formation.

Taubert sees the similarity between concepts conventionally categorized as separate or opposite entities. In his art there is no rigid differentiation between individual and individual, past and future, or man and woman. In Taubert's sculptures classical and modern forms meet in a single work. He breaks the traditional classical forms with his modern technique, without taking away any of the original value and meaning they carry ("King and Queen").

His sculptures are witnesses of the past and present at the same time. The past is represented by artistic and sculptural forms, while a sense of present time is achieved through personal, subjective elements and perceptions. Taubert's figures form an entity, despite their gender differences and lack of direct contact.

His bronze and marble sculptures combine the three basic elements of sculpting: material, form, and thought.
