L’ASPM, a reçu ses Lettres Patentes en 1993. Le but est de promouvoir la sculpture sur pierre et de sensibiliser le public à cette forme d’expression artistique. C’est dans le Studio Créativ’art de St-Basile-le-Grand, sous la direction du peintre et sculpteur Jean-Pierre Neveu, que le premier exécutif fut élu par une douzaine de sculpteurs réunis. Aujourd’hui, la majorité des 45 membres sculpteurs ont leur atelier individuel, par ailleurs quelques uns vont dans un atelier spécialisé. Tous produisent des œuvres originales et professionnelles. Certains travaillent uniquement la pierre, d’autres travaillent aussi le bronze et autres médiums, du miniature au monumental. Chaque année, l’ASPM organise plusieurs expositions pour ses membres selon leur disponibilité. Les membres de l’ASPM participent à différentes expositions individuelles et/ou collectives, à des symposiums et démonstrations non seulement au Québec mais dans d’autres provinces du Canada et même à l’international. Nous espérons vous atteindre par le professionnalisme des œuvres de chacun des sculpteurs et par la sensibilité qui s’en dégagent.

The joy my work brings is my only reward. Sculptor living in the mountains of northern Quebec, part of the Canadian shield. The hard native precambrian stones I work with are some of the oldest time witness on this planet. My sculpture, relates to all life that surrounds me. The symbolism and the magic concerned, are heritage from my native ancestors, "guardians of the eastern door to this continent". In 1991 in France, I was apprentice in life and in stone sculpture to Pierre Székely, Hungarian/French sculptor, from whom I learned to: "Always calibrate your work with the joy it creates".

Most of my stone sculpture work evolves around finding a magical place where the stone calls out to me. Then working under the auspices of something greater, I assemble these free standing sculptures to reveal more than what is physically obvious in the rock. Usually anthropormorphic detail revealing mimetoliths found on the stones I use. They are ephemeral and exist only in photographs that I take at the time of construction.

Began carving at the age of twelve and later studied at the Budapest School of Fine Arts. For three years he worked with Professor Kisfaludy Szigmond, noted Hungarian sculptor. Lancz came to Canada with his wife in 1956. One of his first important commissions was a bust of Abraham Bronfman, Montreal philanthropist, for Mount Sinai Hospital, Ste Agathe, Quebec. In the following years he has done busts of actresses Zsa Zsa Gabor and Jayne Mansfield; former Mayor of Toronto, Nathan Phillips; the late John F. Kennedy, 35th President of United States of America (bust was placed in the Kennedy Library at Harvard University on approval of the President's widow); former Prime Minister of Israel, David Ben Gurion (bust was presented to the Israeli Pavilion at Expo "67" by the artist), and many other commissions including a statue for the Garden of Wonders, La Fontaine Park, Montreal; work for numerous churches and millionaire businessman.
