Miklos Jancsó was born in 1921 in Vac, Hungary. His mother Angela Poparada was Romanian and his father Sandor Jancsó Hungarian. Jancsó received a degree in Law from the University of Cluj-Napoca in 1944. After fighting in WWII and a brief period as a POW, he chose to join the Film and Theater Academy in Budapest, and graduated with a diploma in Film Directing in 1950. His fifth feature film The Round-Up (1966) was a huge hit domestically and internationally and is often considered a significant work of world cinema. Hungarian film critic Zoltan Fabri called it "perhaps the best Hungarian film ever made." Film critic Derek Malcolm included the film in his list of the 100 greatest films ever made. In Hungary, it was seen by over a million people (in a country with a population of 10 million). His next film The Red and the White (1967) became Jancsó's biggest success internationally. It won for example the 'Best Foreign Film' award from the French Syndicate of Cinema Critics. In his following films he developed a personal style of historical analysis using complex camera movements, dance and popular songs, creating his own cinematic style he called "political musical". The long takes became a trademark of Jancsó, so for example the 80-minute long Winter Wind (1969) consists of only 12 shots. Jancsó received the 'Best Director' award at the Cannes Film Festival 1972 for the film Red Psalm (1972). During the 1970s, Jancsó divided his time between Italy and Hungary and made a number of films in Italy, the best known of which is Private Vices, Public Virtues (1976). At that time, his films Hungarian Rhapsody (1979) and Allegro barbaro (1979) were the most expensive to have been produced in Hungary, but the critical reaction was muted. Jancsó was awarded the Career Golden Lion at the Venice Film festival in 1990. After little success and a long break Jancsó returned with The Lord's Lantern in Budapest (1998), which proved to a be a surprising comeback for the director. This success led to a succession of 5 more Pepe (Zoltán Mucsi) and Kapa (Péter Scherer) films, the last in 2006. Jancsó also cemented his reputation by making appearances in a number of films, for example as himself in his Pepe and Kapa films and in guest roles in works by up-and-coming Hungarian directors. Jancsó died of lung cancer on 31 January 2014, aged 92. Fellow Hungarian director Béla Tarr called Jancsó "the greatest Hungarian film director of all time" and acknowledged Jancsó's influence on his own work.- Stephen Bekassy was born on 10 February 1907 in Nyíregyháza, Hungary. He was an actor, known for A Song to Remember (1945), Beyond the Time Barrier (1960) and One Step Beyond (1959).

György Kovásznai (1934-1983) was born on 15 May 1934 in Budapest, Hungary.
In 1944 Kovásznai's foster father was called upon for military service in Austria with his family. During their time away from Budapest the family lost their home, and all of their personal belongings. Returning to Budapest at the end of 1944, the family had to start life all over again, and lived in poverty from that time onwards.
Kovásznai attended the Budapest College of the Fine Arts, but gave up his studies in 1954, at the age of 20. He then worked as a miner for a year and a half, in an effort to get some first-hand experience with the working class. However, the artist soon became completely disillusioned, as he found that "people hate struggle, great slogans and politics. They pay attention to them only as long as they suffer from them..."
In 1956 Kovásznai was readmitted to the Budapest College of the Fine Arts, but was dismissed the following year before receiving his diploma.
From 1958 to 1974 he worked as the editor and columnist of Nagyvilág, a significant Hungarian arts and literary journal, in which he published some of his criticism and paintings. He came to know writers and literature critics during his time at the journal.
Around the same time, in the late 1950's, Kovásznai started holding semi-illegal artistic gatherings at a friend's house. An avant-garde artist community of 50-200 people came together several times a week, until the end of the 1960's. It emerged decades later that his best friend, who hosted these sessions, had been passing on information about Kovásznai to the counterintelligence agency throughout the years.
In 1961 Kovásznai started to work at the Pannonia Film Studio, Hungary's main animation film studio, initially as a playwright, but soon moving on to make his own films. He continued to work at the studio until his death in 1983. Over the course of his career at the studio he made 26 short films, a mini TV-series and a musical-animation feature film. However, his animations were only shown for brief periods of time in cinemas, or not at all. Kovásznai never had an opportunity to exhibit his paintings and drawings in his lifetime.
Politically, Kovásznai was attached to Marxism, yet had an ongoing conflict with the ruling regime. A significant part of his oeuvre reflects on the spring and summer of 1968, and the events in Paris and Prague. His take on the Prague Spring, which culminated in the Soviet invasion, was expressed in his short film "Memory of the summer of '74". In this movie a cockroach-like creature and a black, windowless train form a sharp contrast with a world of summer joy, full of pop music and pretty girls.
Kovásznai was diagnosed with a serious form of leukaemia in 1980, but refused to be treated and ran away from the hospital, so that he could create his final monumental series of paintings and write his great summarizing essay on art theory. He died in 1983. Kovasznai was primarily a painter, who practiced the art of painting on both canvas and the cinema screen and he is often seen as a free-spirited, universal artist whose work cannot be classified into any known artistic school of thought. His unique oeuvre consists of paintings and drawings, as well as experimental animation films in which he attempted to "animate" the art of painting - which was an approach entirely different from mainstream animation. As he once put it: "Perception in terms of movement, in terms of a series of non-isolated phenomena, is a life philosophy".
During an era increasingly dominated by the growing momentum of socialism (both intellectually and aesthetically), Kovasznai consciously and defiantly attempted to pass between genres: "It's about time that these representatives of the traditional, classical, but over-materialistic genres leave behind their departmentalized-to-death roles." - he said.
Discussing Kovasznai's impact today Hungarian sociologist, Ferenc Hammer wrote: "Do you remember Peter Parker's first fight in Spider-Man? When he is attacked by a bullying schoolmate, the viewers are made to see through Parker's eyes that the opponents are moving in different time dimensions. For Parker, the fierce attack appears as a slow-motion shot. This is why those involved in the scene perceive Parker to be moving at a paranormal speed. Before the dazzled eyes of posterity, Kovasznai appears -for lack of a better definition- as a Gesamtkunst artist, whose works of total art keep evading the force of systematizing interpretation. While spellbound audiences keep gaping at the painted figures that abandon their frames, marvelling at the artist who side-step genre delimitations in a flash, let us conjure the aquarium of silence that surrounds Parker, with the noises of the outside world deadened into a hollow mumble."
Since the early 2000s the Kovasznai Research Centre has worked to preserve and promote Gyorgy Kovasznai's oeuvre. Initially the Research Centre focused on cataloguing, restoring and digitalising all aspects of Kovasznai's work (paintings, drawings, films, and writings) and it now seeks opportunities to present the work to the public. As Kovasznai had no opportunity to exhibit his work during his lifetime, and his films had only been accessible in cinemas for very limited periods of time, the first stage of the Foundation's work was to establish his crucial role within the history of Hungarian contemporary art.
In 2010 the first ever Kovasznai retrospective took over an entire wing of the Hungarian National Gallery to critical and public acclaim, accompanied by a comprehensive monograph.
In 2011, the Research Centre hosted a joint exhibition of South African artist William Kentridge and Kovasznai's work at the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest, which featured installation-based animated films by both artists. Speaking about Kovasznai's work, Kentridge said: ''Seeing... Kovasznai... what felt very familiar was kind of the impetus and the essentialness and the emergency of making. That it felt like an emergency. That work has to be made non-stop. ...Whether it is in charcoal, or thick oil paint, whether it is a view of Johanessburg or Budapest, that seems secondary to the pressure for, the pressure for making, and the excess of making... seeing his work my immediate thought was I want to be back in the studio making something. There was kind of a collegial fury of creation which is a main thing that I kind of got, got from him."
In autumn 2011, a Kovasznai exhibition was held at the Collegium Hungaricum Berlin, Germany. Between October 2012- February 2013 the Deutsches Historisches Museum of Berlin hosted an exhibition titled "The Desire for Freedom. Art in Europe since 1945", featuring one of Kovasznai's films alongside works by Fernand Léger, Damien Hirst, Tadeusz Kantor, Richard Hamilton, Gerhard Richter and Boris Christo. The exhibition later set out on a journey to Milan, Tallin and Krakow to last until January 2014.
At the beginning of 2016 the Research Centre introduced György Kovásznai to the British fine art scene via a major solo exhibition at the Somerset House in London. The event was a major success both with the academic audience and the general public, and it opened up doors for the international promotion of Kovásznai's oeuvre: In November 2016 Kovásznai's "Ca Ira" pictures are exhibited alongside works by William Kentridge and four emerging artists as part of the show titled "Creative Fury" in London's Clerkenwell Gallery. Meanwhile Kovásznai's animation films have been widely featured in the programme of film festivals around the world, including the Queensland Film Festival in Australia, the Eyeworks Festival of Experimental Animation in the US and the Manchester Film Festival in the UK. Kovásznai's short films have also been included in the programme of Art Basel Miami 2016.
Since 2018 the Ybl Budai Creative House in Budapest hosts a permanent exhibition of Gyorgy Kovasznai's works which was launched via a "Kovasznai Summer Festival", including a retrospective show and a series of film screenings.- Lukács Bicskey was born on 11 May 1961 in Szeged, Hungary.
