Description

Peter Jecza (1939 - 2009) was an esteemed Romanian sculptor and member of the Hungarian Academy. He taught sculpture in the Arts department of the West University of Timișoara. 

With over 1200 catalogued works, Jecza is considered one of the innovators of modern sculptural language in the Romanian context, working with diverse materials, sculptural types, and subject matters. In many of his works, Jecza meticulously plays with volume and shape, often experimenting with the physical and symbolic appearances of the sphere and the cube. Melting them together, he expands topological relations through artistic exploration, twisting the quotidian perception on space and temporality. The profundity of Jecza’s sculpture arises through the tensions that he thus manages to construct between what is perceived as natural or cultural, timeless or ephemeral. 

Throughout his career, Jecza exhibited widely in countries such as Italy, Germany, USA, Brazil, Iraq, Greece, Denmark, Finland and the Netherlands. In 1978, he exhibited at the Romanian Pavilion of the Venice Biennale in the group exhibition From Nature to Art, From Art to Nature. His works are part of important public and private collections in Romania and abroad. 

Jecza is equally known for his monumental sculptures across Romania (Arad, Lugoj, Sfântu Gheorghe, Timișoara etc.) and Germany (Bad Salzuflen, Stuttgart).
