Lili Orszag

Lili Orszag, real name Lívia Éva Oesterreicher, is a Hungarian artist, graphic artist and designer.

As a young girl, in 1944, she was forced to work in a brick factory in the ghetto, where the Nazi regime had taken Jewish families. This caused such a deep wound in the soul of a 17-year-old girl that even after a long time she could not draw anything but brick walls.

After the war, Lili studied at the Hungarian Academy of Fine Arts and worked as a designer for the State Puppet Theater from 1950 until her death. At the same time, Lili Orszag began to practice painting. The recurring motifs of her works are the ancient, historical past, material and spiritual remnants and fragments of past cultures, ruined cities that have ceased to exist, and walls that signify confinement, loneliness and fear. Between 1973 and 1978, Orszag wrote the series Labyrinths, which is the culmination of her work.
