Just a few months ago, Košice lit up with the fireworks of a cultural explosion when the city took over the baton of the prestige title, European Capital of Culture 2013, together with the partner city of Marseille, and now is the time to pass this on and say goodbye to a year which has brought a new dimension to the city. It attracted artistic personalities and started a process which will not finish when this year ends. There are foundations being constructed on which we will continue to build.

A CASE HISTORY OF A SOCIETY

A CASE HISTORY OF A SOCIETY

Following the last year’s success of Anamnesis by Viktor Bodó, his student director Dániel D. Kovács is coming to put questions about the mental health of society.
