    Hrvatski kipar Davorin Martin Hotko (Zagreb, 1890. – Zagreb, 1962.) zanemarena je umjetnička osobnost o čijem se životu malo zna, a kiparski opus nije dovoljno istražen i valoriziran. Hotko je vrstan portretist kao i njegov profesor Rudolf Valdec, realist. U Gliptoteci Hrvatske akademije znanosti i umjetnosti sačuvana su samo četiri njegova djela dok su ostali radovi uništeni 1986. godine. U Arhivu za likovne umjetnosti HAZU osim oskudne biografije, nalaze se fotografije njegovih radova koji više ne postoje. Desetak skulptura dio su obiteljske ostavštine. Hotko je poučavao kiparstvo u Obrtnoj školi u Zagrebu. The artistic personality of Croatian sculptor Davorin Martin Hotko (Zagreb, 1890 – Zagreb, 1962) has long been neglected, as information on his life is scarce and his sculptural oeuvre remains understudied and underassessed. Hotko was an excellent sculptor of portraits, as was his teacher Rudolf Valdec, himself a Realist. The Glyptotheque of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts preserves only four Hotko’s sculptures, while other works were destroyed in 1986. Apart from a short biography, the Fine Arts Archives of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts holds photographs of the sculptor’s lost works, while some ten sculptures belong to his family estate. Hotko taught sculpture in the Zagreb School of Crafts.
