This years' "Sculpture by the Sea" Show will be Juried by Bela Bacsi -
Béla Bácsi is a Fellow of the National Sculpture Society, the oldest organization of professional sculptors in the United States, established in New York City in 1893.
Self-taught, in 1978 Bácsi traveled to Pietrasanta and Carrara, Italy where he obtained employment at the Studio Ferdinando Palla marble studios and was assigned to carve architectural ornamental projects. He returned to the United States and worked as an architectural ornamental master designer at Fischer and Jirouch Architectural Ornamentation, and as a bronze foundryman at the nationally acclaimed Studio Foundry, both in Cleveland, before opening his own sculpture studios there.
In 1999, in his first-ever submission to a national juried art exhibition, Bácsi won the Gold Medal and Maurice B. Hexter Prize at the NSS Annual Members’ Exhibition in New York City.
Bácsi is a Signature Member of the California Art Club, established in 1906. His work has been awarded the Gold Medal twice, in 2001 and again in 2007, at the CAC Annual Juried Members’ exhibitions at the Pasadena Museum of California Art.
Each of Bácsi’s one of a kind marble sculptures is highly sought after. His work has been exhibited coast to coast, and is held in significant private collections throughout the world. He holds a California Community College teaching certificate for Adult Education programs, and has taught at Santa Barbara City College, and privately since 1986. He serves as an advisor to the Santa Barbara Museum of Art Docents’ Council. He lives and works in Santa Barbara.
