Dan Reisinger belongs to one of the leading places on the world list of designers, graphic artists, fine arts creators.
That prolific, diverse, esteemed artist is considered to be the founder of design in Israel. For his friends he is simply Ivan, the artist born in Magyarkanizsa, who emmigrated to Israel in 1949. He visited his birthtown recently. It was a fateful return to the birthplace, where the dedication to art secrets took part long ago. Faced again with the scenes of his childhood and youth, with the bank splashed by the Tisza, the flowery trees in the park, colourful flowers. The existence came apart, everything was blazing in its pulsating centre. Dan Reisinger, otherwise, appeared to be the master of charming meetings. Following the paths of his childhood and youth, we peeped into the parts of the town which were opened only by the movement of his hand.Only when you find your home inside yourself, you are able to create out of it, to meet the world quietly, wherever you cast a glance.
