On 19 December 1943, Ferenc Deák Literary and Art Circle was formed in Zalaegerszeg with the participation of 28 artists, including Sándor Boldogfai Farkas. He didn't fight in the Second World War, but after the Soviets occupied Budapest in 1945 he was arrested by them; he was released only months later. He worked and lived at the Art Colony on Százados Avenue ("Százados úti művésztelep"). The Second World War devastated great part of the buildings of Budapest: in 1957 the Hungarian sculptors Sándor Boldogfai Farkas, Ödön Metky and János Sóváry carved replicas in the New York Caféof the damaged allegorical sculptures of Thrift and Wealth, America and Hungary. For a while in the 1960s, his favorite subjects were animal life, holy persons, and creatures of Greek mythology. When the Payphone was introduced in Hungary Sándor Boldogfai Farkas designed the first coin (called "Tantusz") that used for these public machines.
