Quotes from PAF’s book, by Mihály Borsos:

„Painfully launching, loud sorrow, all color, all heart. This is where PAF’s book begins. Intriguing, bold color; at times aggressive composition; applications and intriguing fragments. Nearly all materials soften at PAF’s touch. The photographer cannot believe his camera when he looks into the viewfinder, and then back to the image…

It is not a firsthand message these pieces impart, but power and persuasion. Ars poetica and lifestyle at once – this is commitment. The early pieces are wild and reckless lunacies, full of magic. His pieces stand their own ground. They have soul.

PAF’s power is in his dual, perhaps even multiple, ego. In creating an image, the visual artist emerges from a philosophical plane to transcend dimensions until the artwork manifests itself. PAF extends a confident invitation to enter his world.”

Quotes from PAF’s book, by PAF:

„Life is not just about dragging along the beaten path with our heads down, but rather about lifting our eyes toward the most distant stars while blazing our trail, little by little, into the great unknown.”
