Endre Bálint

His father, Aladár Bálint, was a well-known art critic in the West and his uncle was the editor and writer Ernő Osvát.

After returning home, in 1935, at the private school of János Vaszary, he met Lajos Vajda, with whom he soon formed a personal and artistic friendship.

From 1937 to 1940, many young painters belonged to Lajos Vajda and Dezső Korniss in Szentendre, including Endre Bálint.

In 1947, he spends more time in Paris, meets André Breton, and participates in the International Surrealist World Exhibition.

His painting took Dadaist, Constructivist, Surrealist and abstract directions, but he preserved his lyrical tone even in the midst of the most daring free associations.
