Attila Vidnyánszky window blinds.

Vidnyánszky's another gem fell more interested in the subject in front of days. The current Debrecen, Budapest theater director but soon usual hackneyed style of the continued struggle of the liberals started kultúrsátán counter.

Our hero is not a man of words, but likes to think of himself. It has long been won

appointed director of the National Theatre, but still can not stop Robert Alföldi fucking. (Even when you are not, which is probably not even intend to. Collegiality of the break Hungarian.) But the yawning voiced clichés (sacred blabla) next time a shockingly nefarious tricks are deployed. The latest megnyilvánulásról dictionary parser reads the chronicle:

However, Attila Vidnyánszky stressed paradigm shift comes with a as part of a very large National Theatre would like to create. "The a national church, spiritual, sacred space, born from the soul of the nation "- future leader of the theater said, adding that the National Theatre, "the built and kept alive the idea of right, the other kind of thoughts we saw what he did to her."

Attila Vidnyánszky

The first thought is nonsensical ("large" National Theatre), the paradigma change 'lózung' even have to smile. Mr Alföldi liberal attempt theatrical world weighed against its conservative ideology, but they are just empty phrases paper. Where the dominant pattern in the arts due to the nature of the freedom of millions of about the possibility of, already doomed to fail in the driver, who was a paradigm explanation of the infinite space of their own narrow dead end. (György Fekete is also his destiny will be, once home to the cultural life of eighty-percent cut. He seriously about. Even turns a blind eye too, so we will not see his face when he meets a wall. See also Dörner George "cozy" theaters. Among friends can be good yell at a blind window.)

Lowland non-political lines led to the National Theatre. This is often underlined words and reality stood. Vidnyánszky - the initial slack Following protests - admittedly it does now. Thus, in this form is correct about the change. Non-political party as an ideological teátrumból National Theatre of promise. Name of the institution of the theater it is practically irrelevant. Dogma paradigm. It is also cool.

Secretary Zoltán Balog manageability

However, the last sentence is concerned, it is still Vidnyánszky politically blind, fanatics and road rollers are revolting habit of knowing. From degrading in the extreme to Note begins to become clear what role for himself. Hadvezérit who words under the guise of art agyonmisztifikált bunker built for himself. War began every minute, and now that I won, the loser gyalázva explains, "success". (There's what, if you think about the way to victory.) Is now not only provocative sentence the profession is divided into two parts. As chief of the country, he is the theatrical medium (Including everyone on stage and auditorium) splitting: target species and bad. The kept alive the idea right? Where you live, where the man lived? What planet? What age? Where does the courage to ráturházzon shared our table? How can you be so thick in the taxpayers' money are treated skin on your face?

"... The other kind of thought we saw what he did to it" - mutters sullenly. Really. What? Perhaps enjoy theater, sacred bullshit without. But what is equally Note: You can also see what you did not do. I do not how politics run amok. Non-stained turulnyálba say. Not insulting anyone. I do not bluff. I do not want to church to do theater. I do not want to get a faithful pártvalláshoz but attracted an audience theaters. (Church and Church of the huge difference.) Not hõzöngött. Art concept with masked voices trend is not stabbed knife in the already bleeding from a thousand wounds in society. Not be humiliated. I do not spit in the image other. Neither victory before or after. And most importantly: do not do what the the apparatus of the present power and enjoy doing: not the petty grievance motivated by revenge to fulfill.

The moment when a man is in the right wing political culture appropriated Theater was on, it ceases to be a National Theatre. Own shouting, but it is more more. Stupidity, selfishness and hatred hálószaggatója. And this man's I've given some leadership power. This man preaches nation. He embodies the Hungarian theater arts in the summer.

Cheers, Herr Direktor! Each week war!

Dear Minister,

In the past year, your ministry took cultural policy measures - especially in the Hungarian theater of public life - that has attracted the attention. As you probably know this, many of these decisions in Hungary and Austria are highly controversial.

Therefore, let us  - with those (Elfriede Jelinek, Michael Haneké, Erwin Wurm, Ewald Palmetshofer, Kathrin and Peter Rögglá, Turrini) who are professionally close to me  - have mail contact with you. We would like you to see the Hungarian theater of public life for present and future thoughts and suggestions. We respectfully ask you to accept our recommendation.

Yours sincerely,

Matthias Hartmann, director of the Burgtheater in Vienna

It will be poorer

The Hungarian theater did a lot for the fame of the country to date, both public and independent stages are fully exploited the full potential of cultural context. This tradition is now destroyed by who are not able to think long-term by that they mix culture with national aspects.By the political influence and by ideological restraint country does not only lose productive energies, and ultimately becomes poorer, but it's the environment and the oppression of minorities, violence against them is also favorable. This is the worst possible, which take place in a society. I feel that it is now Hungary, the artists and theaters necessarily need to be supported so as to be able to stand against such intentions.

Elfrida Jelinek

These are basic rights

This is not a matter of right or left side: the freedom of expression and artistic freedom fundamental rights. The States in which such rights are explicitly or implicitly undermine the introduction of censorship, no longer considered democracies.

Michael Haneke

Personal Recommendations

Dear Minister Balog,

Cultural policy developments in Hungary watched with concern and skepticism over the past few months, so as to free artists from Europe, I feel obliged to protest herewith the Hungarian National Theatre Director politically motivated against the exchange.

I took the liberty to describe it to you in this letter some of my personal suggestions for the 2013 year, I hope to heed them. Free theater I wish to Hungary, as will the leaders of political influence, without a serious and genuine professional considerations are appointed to ensure that these institutions are varied and healthy developing cultural workshops as operational.

I would like to have a Hungarian theater, which is available free from the financial means of political instruction and spend the money on playground uncensored and artists. Finally, I urge the Hungarian theater of public life in order that the government - especially your wallet - change way of thinking, and will seek a democratic cultural policy issues and enlightened way to approach.

The art and culture of the one-sided political influence is extremely dangerous hold, at the same time hope that the government's decision-making time will understand: these processes can cause great damage and can lead to passivity.

Erwin Wurm

Stay questionable

Concern, please urge the Hungarian Government not wanting to become unquestionable, but rather tolerate him against it. This process does not close, no compartment, but also support and protect those institutions that are posted on these issues. The Hungarian contemporary art and artists would like to express my solidarity with my respect and ask them to not let things continue, of openness and political guarantees for the freedom and equality. In addition, protect their workshop and all workshop in which we all have the same need and will be.

Ewald Palmetshofer

No one can do it for you

Dear Mr. Balog,

I turn to you in this letter, because of serious concern in Hungary theaters and public art life situation. As a theater close to all international countries, languages ​​and cultures in a cavalcade 

of work, so no country can do for you in the art, particularly in the European region. Therefore, I expect you to not only the Director of the National Theatre for solely political reasons for their removal review, but the measures that are independent of the financial impossibility theaters implying. Also for independent theater associations of which you have supported so actively as reflected in the Hungarian tradition. One more thing: prove it, please have your country in the European theater scene remains vibrant cultural scene and progressive component, not some dusty museum of nationalist feeling. I expect you to be ready to engage in a democratic art debate, which also belongs to notice and taken seriously by the Hungarian arts actors widespread protests listen to many experts, do not go to the old police state footsteps and do not implant all the art institution head political functionaries close to you. Such assertive behavior is not only the art of bringing a disadvantage. Criticism of any democracy survive. Democracies and only have a future in Europe.

Kathrin Röggla

Only dictatorships

The policy has to make enable the operation of the theater. Policy has to keep out. Only dictatorships intervene.

Actually I want to scream – Margareth Törőcsik about the competition

19th of December 2012

Although Zoltán Balog (human Resources Minister) said that every member of jury supported Attila Vidnyánszky, the winner of the competition, Margareth Törőcsik would have been glad to tell she had been the only one who voted for Robert Alföldi, that is why Szinhaz.hu (a hungarian webpage) interviewed Margareth Törőcsik, a very famous actor of Hungary (She won the Actor of Nation Prize).

On the news conference on monday where Zoltán Balog announced the victory of Attila Vidnyánszky, he said that only two people’ competition standed all demands.He added that after personal hearing, all of the Commitee members proposed Attila Vidnyánszky to be the head of the theatre. while 4 people vote against and 1 for Robert Alföldi. Margareth told, this is not exactly how it was.

‘From what Zoltán Balog said it can be concluded that me, who I am the member of the Commitee, voted for Attila Vidnyánszky and Robert Alföldi either, but this is not true.’ – said the famous actress to our magazine. ‘ It is terrible that nearly 57 years of experince at the age of 80 I have to explain the truth for a country but I do because what happened was so staggering.’- told Margareth Törőcsik.

‘Attila Vidnyánszky is my friend, and I respect him but that does not mean I voted for him too. On one occasion when I played in Debrecen, at dinner I told Attila, to made it clear, I was going to vote for Alföldi. I added that I love him, I respect him, I appreciate his achievement but the company delegated me to represent their views and I agree with them. Now I publicly declare that what Robert Alföldi has done was perfect and I would have liked him to be the head of theatre. The National Theatre started to become better and better and now it reached the stage of maturity ‘ – said Margareth Törőcsik to our magazine.

She also talked about how could happen this misunderstanding in this case. ‘ I am easy to be tricked, I never assume people are bad. There were four competitors, two of them incompetent, so two people came to be heared. After he left we were asked whether he is competent or not. I said his competition was high level. Then Mr. Robert came and I was the only who voted for him. I made my point of view about that I solely vote for Robert Alföldi. Subsequently they say I voted for two people because I told both of them are competent. Actually I would like to scream but I controll myself. How are they able to calumniate me?’ pointed out the Actor of Nation. She also confirmed that the competiton is absolutely derogatory because in every time cultural policy have been the power to decide who should be the head of the National Theatre. ‘ I do not really understand why this kind of “circus” is let. The applicants sit there in front of the Commitee, there are lots of silly question, then we vote behind them. It is a comedy! – said Margareth Törőcsik.
