Bemerkung:

János Fajó (1937 - 2018) was a significant figure in Hungarian constructivist and geometric abstract art. His work often explored relationships between simple geometric shapes and colors, as seen in this piece with its intersecting yello and red circles. He studied decorative painting from 1956 to 1961, at the Budapest Academy of Applied Arts. In 1964, he learned the work of Lajos Kassak, and became his pupil. In 1966, he arranged the exhibition of the Studio of Young Artists '66'. Here he gets in touch with artists like István Nádler and Imre Bak. From 1968, he traveled to Basel, Paris, and Nuremberg. Along the way, he met Victor Vasarely, Max Bill, and the collector and art dealer Carl Laszlo. - In 1974, he established a silkscreen workshop for fellow painters to provide access to international art fairs.
