He was only able to do his art at the end of the 1950s, but he was able to start painting regularly again and get involved in local and national artistic life. For 25 years in Debrecen, he managed the work of the Medgyessy Ferenc Fine Arts Circle and Studio and organised the circle's artist camps - to this day, many artists consider him their master - and he was also a painting teacher at the Tokaj artist camp for eleven years. In addition to his landscapes and still lifes, his portrait painting elevated him to the ranks of Debrecen's most important artists. His daughter, Eszter Biró, is also a painter who learned the love of art from her father at an early age: she learned to draw and paint in the Ferenc Medgyessy Fine Arts Circle and considers Lajos Bíró to be her master. Eszter Biró taught at the Árpád Tóth High School […]
