PRINTS by ATTILA HEJJA
Attila Hejja is an artist whose work eludes categorization. This Hungarian born painter applies to his canvas a feeling of intense drama and a sense of presence that is characteristic in all of his works. Although he is well known for his aerospace paintings for the U.S. Air Force, NASA, and corporate clients, Attila's versatility is reflected in work commissioned by a variety of clients. He is currently a cover artist for Popular Mechanics, and his art appears in the pages and on the covers of most major publications nationwide.Recently, the United Nations Postal Administration, the United Nations Office of Outer Space Affairs honored Attila by selecting his phenomenal painting Earth Light for the World Federation of United Nations Associations first day cover and limited edition art print, as well as his visionary design of the three United Nations Stamps. Attila's paintings are displayed in both private and public collections worldwide, and have been exhibited in the Kennedy's Space Center Museum Pentagon's Documentary Art Collection, the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum and in traveling exhibits throughout Europe and Japan. His early training includes nearly four years of concentrated study with Harold Stevenson, a student of Norman Rockwell. Honors received by the illustrator include the 1985 Hamilton King Award for illustration, the highest award offered in America, as well as a Gold Medal from the Society of Illustrators for best illustrated art, a Gold Medal from the prestigious Hudson Valley Art Association and Distinction by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for his contributions to the NASA art program.
