Gyorgy Bp. Szabo

Gyorgy Bp. Szabo (born September 30, 1953 in Budapest) is a designer and musician.

Education

edit

In 1982, Gyorgy Bp. Szabo received his MFA from the Moholy-Nagy University Of Art And Design in Budapest. He then got his Masters in Typography. His professors included Sandor Ernyei, Janos Kass, Peter Viragvolgyi and the legendary Ernő Rubik, the inventor of the Rubik's Cube. As a graphic designer he designed posters, mostly representing alternative bands.

Career

edit

In 1992, Szabo became the co-owner of A.R.C. Studio, and in 1994, he started his own graphic design company called Bp. Studio. In 1996, he moved to Los Angeles to work for the well-known animation company Klasky Csupo where he became an art director. In 2004, he worked for Crew Creative, and finally landed the position of Creative Director at Cleopatra Records. His art reflects the way music and art collide. From 1983, his band Bp. Service has reflected the sound of accidental noise discoveries, machines, and the sound of the city along with self-made generators, resulting in uniquely innovative music. His art reflects the pulse of city life; an expression of the rhythms of post modern recycled urban street art, balancing atmospheric dreams and ambient reality. These creations reflect an eco-friendly way to recreate disposed objects into art pieces that are, in essence, a collection of junk.
