Karel Putrih (1910-1959)
For his sculpture on the façade of the People's Assembly of the Republic of Sloveni

Karel Putrih is the sculptor behind the artwork on the frieze of the portal of the National Assembly of the Republic of Slovenia. In a single frame, he allegorically united the main economic activities. Putrih’s work is a reflection of remarkable creativity and a good knowledge of sculpture as well as deliberation. In addition to its artistic qualities, Kalin’s and Putrih’s work on the portal of the National Assembly stands out for being the largest sculpture in Slovenia in recent decades.
