About Artist
Attila Kovács
After studying in Tiszaújváros and later in Eger, I worked as a cultural center director and journalist in the Danube Bend, in Szigetmonostor, between 2004 and 2020. From 2014, I began exploring photography as a hobby, later transitioning into freelance work, which eventually brought me to Vienna in 2020. Without cutting ties to Hungary, "I am living between two worlds,” earning my living primarily as a photographer and organizer of artistic forums and creative events.
