50TH ARTISTIC JUBILEE My dance drama entitled ’Lucidium Intervallum – the Way to Light’ commemorates the poet of greatest influence in Croatian literature, who set modernism on its way: Sylvie Strahimir Kranjcevic. It is a new chapter and a new revelation of my career as a choreographer at the same time. The movements of the piece are birth and family, love wanderings, faith and piety, the relationship of power and the individual, the ontological ring embracing the irrevocable solitude ...and passing that are enclosed in the body. (One has seen much in so many years...) Antal Kricskovics Artist of Excellence and Merit I profess myself to belong to those with the task of depicting their age realistically. The world in which we live has become distorted, ruthless and malignant, but also smart and technocratic, still emotionless or dazzling like a fake pearl - partly owing to our own activity. There are is an infinite number of experiences waiting to be interpreted, still I am only interested in our beautiful and extraordinarily rich mother tongue of dance. Tibor Galambos It is great pleasure for me to appear in a homely program together with three of my dancer-choreographer colleagues walking on different roads after decades of dance festivals and dance anthologies, in order for us each to introduce an element of our dance-poetry. I adhere to Asian roots and build on Hungarian folk dance and folk music to follow the example of Sándor Petőfi, Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály. I also love work with dances of minorities and neighbouring nations and make choreographies for composed pieces of music, too. Sándor Tímár state distinguished Artist of Merit Edited by: TIBOR GALAMBOS We, as three artists of different character but all inspired by the determining choreographic workshop of István Molnár, all date the start of our choreographic activity from 1957.
