Sándor Dobány
I was born in Pécs, in Hungary in 1954 and I was trained as a ceramist at the Zsolnay porcelan factory, famous for its high-quality tableware and architectural ceramics.
The series of teapots made in 1985 changed my artistic cateer, from that time I have turned my attention to ceramics and porcelain. I was interested in porcelain and I tried to reconside the design of articles of personal use.
Since 1989 I have had great opportunities to work with outstanding architects.
In 1993 I was one of the founders of the Hungaryan group called DeForma.
We made a lot of International Syposions i Hungary.
Since the end of the 90s I have been less interested in the function of porcelain objects,
I have rather been fascinated by the connection of from and its decoration.
Since 1999, I regulalry design for Zsolnay Factory.
