According to his daughter, Lívia, Géza Gorka proved with a life's work that ceramic is an independent genre. "Plastic, but not sculpture. Colourful, but not painting. Drawings, but no graphics."

Verőce, the workshop, his father's teachings were decisive in Lívia Gorka's work (1925-2011). The unique beauty of the natural environment, the talent, the family example, curiosity and professional issues influenced her to constant experimentation, It was a worthy legacy to Livia Gorka at the beginning of her artist career to find her own expression as sculpture in the seventies - wrote about her the rt historian Lilla Szabó.
