Jaschik, Álmos, Bártfa, 1885 - 1950, Budapest
A pupil of the Model Drawing School, he obtained a teacher's diploma in 1907. He took a study tour through France, Belgium, Germany and Holland in 1908. He became a teacher at the Budapest Industrial Drawing School in 1906, and head of the book-binding and decorative leather-work department, but had to leave the institution in 1920. Upon the request of his students, he opened a private school specialising in graphic design at this point, which stayed in operation until 1950. He worked out his theory about the spiritual origins of the ornament during his years of teaching, and also published his thoughts on the problems of pedagogy. His work in scenic design took off in the twenties, and he was the costume designer for the National Theatre from 1935 onwards. He introduced the use of projection in stage-sets in Hungary, which found emphatic presence in the schools of stage design and modelling as well. As a graphic artist he was primarily an illustrator. He was a member of the Hungarian Society of Book and Advertisement Artists and also worked in animated film productions between 1942 and 1944.
