such as: During her ten year residence in N.Y. one of her private commissions
was to create a bust of boxing great Jake LaMotta of "Raging Bull"
fame. Mr. LaMotta referred her to numerous other boxing "greats"
such as Ken Norton, Archie Moore and more recently Canadian Walk of Fame
- George Chuvalo. In the early 90's Ms. Horvath experimented with a new form of imagery,
very prominent in the art movement of the 1960's called "hyperrealism".
Primarily self thought in this field, she feels this application compliments
her skills as a sculptor. The "Genesis" Series is the result of creative experimentation
in bronze casting. Ms. Horvath's original sculptures in clay, plaster and acrylic's have
been exhibited at The Meisner Foundry, The Long Island Art League and at
numerous solo and group shows in the Toronto area. Currently residing in Brampton and traveling between her studio in Toronto
