a Budapest Spring Festival unimaginable in 1981 (documents on the experiments of the “underground art” institution) The starting point was a secret service situation report which stated: [the representatives of parallel culture] “in the interest of ensuring their uncontrolled activity claim the right to create the possibility for independent publishing, and to continuously organise their exhibitions in independent small galleries and other exhibition places. Without the knowledge of the cultural bodies, they have set up independent organisations, an agency, an audio and film archive, and have established a “special journal”. […] their organising activity has grown in direct proportion to the silence of official criticism on the subject of their “art”, they have taken very firm steps towards creating increasingly wider opportunities, they have taken advantage of the blank spaces in decentralisation […] Lóránd Hegyi formulated the tactic they should use as follows: they must create and use possibilities for further steps in the “no man’s land” of cultural policy practice.” (Dossier on the agent called Painter, 1981.) Institutions, groups and publications of the 1981 “unimaginable festival”: Zsuzsa Simon Office, Újpest Mini Gallery, Artpool, Indigo, Fényképészeti lapok [Photographic sheets], Snob International, etc. The artists and organisers figuring in the exhibitions, events and publications include: Zsuzsa Simon, Tamás Eskulits, András Halász, Ákos Birkás, Károly Kelemen, Lóránt Méhes, Sándor Molnár, András Wahorn, Róbert Swierkiewicz, András Lengyel, Ernő Tolvaly, György Galántai, Miklós Erdély, András Böröcz, Zoltán Lábas, Tivadar Nemesi, László Révész, János Sugár, András Bán, László Lugo, István Halas, Tamás Pap, Tibor Hajas, Gergely Molnár, etc. March 21st - April 1st
