ŽivljenjepisZmago Kovač, profesor likovne umetnosti Rojen maja 1964 v Mariboru, otroška leta sem preživljal v Kamnici, živeli smo ob gozdu polnem skrivnosti, kjer je vse vrvelo od življenja. Na dvorišču se je ob dežju nabirala fina peščena usedlina, ki se je v soncu posušila v fin prah, mivka, katero sem nabral v dlani in jo v poletnem vetru metal visoko v veter in zraven klical » kurim » in še sedaj je živ čudovit občutek svobode ob tem. V bližini hiše babice onkraj velikega hribovja Pohorja je šumel gozd z velikimi drevesi in tla so bila prekrita z mahom, mehkim in košatim, da se je bosa noga vdirala do gležnjev in si hodil po njem kot po najfinejši preprogi. Iz nje so gledale velike gobe. Od povsod so se dvigale meglice in po sončnih žarkih so plesale vile, to je bil svet skrivnosti in čarovnije, ki je zlagoma izginil v sodobnem turističnem vrvežu. Šolska leta ali zgodba o hoji v pretesnih čevljih 1984 – 86 Pedagoška akademija 1986 – 1988 preprosto življenje in ustvarjanje v gozdu in divjini 1988 – 89 – študijsko potovanje po Indiji – Bihar, Madya Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, kjer je nastal cikel akvarelov, risb in skic s potovanja 1989 – 93 Prebival v Istri, ob reki Dragonji, večinoma v majhni kamniti hiški v divjini, kjer mi je prvinskost bivanja in povezanost z reko odstiralo mistične razsežnosti življenja. Občasno sem pasel koze na opuščenih poljih v dolini Drnice. V tistih časih so bili ti kraji pozabljeni od sveta. Iz ilovice sem oblikoval različne kipce, katere sem puščal postavljene na prostem in opazoval, kako se ob dežju vračajo nazaj v zemljo. V tem času so nastala dela v tehniki olja na platnu in akvareli, katere sem 1991 tudi razstavil ( Istrska krajina ) v osrednji knjižnici Srečka Vilharja v Kopru. 1995 – 1998 – Nadaljevanje študija 2003 -- Diplomiral pri prof.

Curriculum Vitae
Zmago Kovač, professor of fine arts Born in May 1964 in Maribor. I spent my childhood years in Kamnica. We lived next to a forest full of secrets, where everything was bustling with life. In the yard, when it rained, a fine sand deposit accumulated, which dried in the sun into a fine dust, a washcloth that I collected in the palm of my hand and in the summer wind threw it high into the air and called "kurim" beside it, and even now it a vivid wonderful sense of freedom with it. Near the grandmother's house, beyond the great hills of Pohorje, there was a rustling forest with large trees, and the ground was covered with moss, soft and bushy, so that the bare foot penetrated up to the ankles and you walked on it like on the finest carpet. Large mushrooms looked out of it. Mists rose from everywhere and fairies danced in the sun's rays, it was a world of mystery and magic which slowly disappeared in the modern tourist bustle.
