MAGAZINE RUD - ISSUE 2010
Ladislav Stromko by Peter Laučík
Woodcarver Ladislav Stromko (1931) spent his childhood in the rural region of Liptov, where he got acquainted with wood. He started to work with wood as an adult man, 35 years ago. He has focused on utility objects as they have allowed him to combine design and function. Now, he works in a workshop established in a basement of the house he lives in and makes spoons, forks, knives, with or without holes, mugs from wood and rind, gutters of various types and sizes. The ÚĽUV buys many products for its shops from Ladislav Stromko. He was awarded the title Master of folk art production last year.
