A GIFT TO
CANADA
Imre Szekely
presented "Canada Past, Present and Future", a
lino-cut and monotype, to Canadian Prime Minister Jean
Chretien at his Parliament Hill office.
Thirty-six
carved, individual lino-cut sections represent Canada's past,
present and future, while a colorful monotype displays the
country in the background.
The arrival of
three ships to the Maritime coast from the Old World portrays
the past. Other historical symbolism is comprised by an image
of the original inhabitants of this land, proudly standing
beside a carving on the West Coast.
The present is
depicted by the ten provincial and three territorial coat of
arms, including Canada's newest addition, Nunavut. Modern,
cosmopolitan Canadian skylines are also exhibited in the work.
The figure of a
father next to his son, as a mechanical arm sprinkles flowers,
embodies the future. Incorporated within this symbolism, a
robot carries a basket of flowers, emphasizing the importance
of a healthy environment in the future.
A dove bearing
the Canadian flag signifies the key role Canada plays as a
peacekeeper in an often unstable world.
Numerous other
images demonstrate the wonder and magnificence of this great
country. |

Abba Pater
A letter from the Vatican
|
Received the privilege of being the first
Canadian artist to have a personal audience with the Holy
Father.
October 27, 1999
Szekely regards
"Abba Pater" the finest creation of his 25 years as
a Graphic Artist. He produced this composition after listening
to the newly released CD " Abba Pater", a
compilation of songs, hymns and prayers performed by his
Holiness Pope John Paul II. The Hungarian artist was so
inspired by the CD's majestic, uplifting and magnificent
contents that he was compelled to create this inspirational
work of art. He used a classic Linocut, Monotype method
combined with hyper- surrealism to create his masterpiece.
On October 27,
1999 Szekely received the privilege of being the
first Canadian artist to have a personal audience with the
Holy Father and to present him with his work. He considers
this to be the highlight of his life and career.
