On March 2, another second Garabonci. The Hungarian Academy of Arts and Research Institute of Art Theory and Methodology (MMA MMKI) organizes a conference entitled Hungarian Counterculture (1958-1996).

“The conference seeks to broaden its horizons to include all branches of art: we can hear performances of architecture, music, fine arts, cinema, literary and dance performances,” organizers said in a statement to MTI on Tuesday.


As they write, the event will talk about Zsuzsa Koncz’s career in the Kádár system, the relationship between architecture and counterculture before 1989, what was the best feature of Imre Szilas and what are the possibilities of Christian light music today.


“The experience of last year’s conference was that there were a number of important countercurrents to the Hungarian cultural trend in the second half of the twentieth century. The aim of this year’s meeting is to present counterculture at a theoretical level,” the statement said.


Among others, sociologist historian Áron Máthé, Vice-Chairman of the National Committee of Remembrance, will explain what counterculture means, where the term comes from and how it can be applied to the world of restoration as a home, and the difference between resistance and opposition.


Restorer sculptor Marca Bersaka introduces the life and work of sculptor Istvan Marca to those interested.


Zuh Deodáth, a postdoctoral researcher at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and Ethics Research Center, is looking for an answer to how an artist who needs financial support can effectively achieve his work whose final details must be licensed.


Historian Pence Kasatari, scholar at the National Memorial Committee, focuses on the interesting and important moments in the career of Zsuzza Konc from the point of view of culture and culture, and from the point of view of the party-state.


Anna Maria Puglia, Associate Professor at the Hungarian University of Dance, and MMA MMKI Researcher examines how to convey Maurice Bigart’s “subversive” and “ritual” style of dance, and Ivan Marko reinterprets the new elements constituted by his total theatre.


In his presentation, Gergeli Horvat, Managing Director of the Petőfi Media Group of the Hungarian Culture Foundation group, highlights the beginnings of Hungarian music, its importance, its current potential, and its significance.


Poet Marton Falusi, a writer and senior researcher for the MMKI MMKI, talks about the existence of new Hungarian lyric poems linked to the analysis of some of the poems. In his presentation, Philosopher Attila Farkas, a scholar of MMA MMKI, talks about how an early Hungarian villain attacked the communist regime, as well as its intellectual opposition, and how he dealt with the ideals of the 1960s. András Szekfű, film historian and professor emeritus, presents Peter Muller’s Siamese journey to Ex-Codex.


The statement highlights that the meeting aims to put an end to a number of myths, including researchers analyzing the relationship between the state security apparatus and opposition-type counter-cultural events, performances and concerts. “Many past and present taboos were discussed, such as faith and secrecy, the cultural role of new small Protestant churches, or the spread of Eastern spiritual teachings,” the conference said.


While writing, the performers also analyze what the counterculture means for artists who adopt the 3T system out of compulsion. The question may also arise about how the legacy of liquidated peasants, and folk art, contributed to contemporary art in the 1980s, according to the letter.


The conference, which begins at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, can be followed live on MMA’s YouTube channel MMKI.
