He was the leader of the avant-garde group The Eight.

He was appointed as Government Commissioner for Arts and got an art school during the short lived Hungarian Soviet Republic in 1919. He had to leave Hungary after the collapse of the republic.

He was rehabilitated in 1926 and could go back to Hungary where he lived as a acclaimed artist until his death in 1940.
