{"product_id":"unnepi-konyv-het-70-festa","title":"Holiday Book Week, Hungary","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis electrifying 1970 poster by György Kolozsváry was created for Ünnepi Könyvhét, or Holiday Book Week – Hungary’s premier literary celebration, founded in 1929. Born during a period of national reconstruction, the event was conceived to encourage Hungarian authorship, promote reading, and strengthen the country's cultural identity through literature. It quickly became a fixture of the intellectual calendar, drawing writers, publishers, and readers together in city squares and bookstalls across the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy 1970, Könyvhét had survived war, censorship, and regime change, evolving into a symbolic affirmation of Hungary’s deep literary heritage. The modernist style of this poster reflects a shift in tone during the socialist era: forward-looking, abstract, and sophisticated. Kolozsváry’s design turns the book itself into a dynamic force, with bold black-and-white lines opening like fanned pages, spilling into vibrant color fields that pulse with energy. It’s a tribute not just to the written word, but to the enduring vitality of creative expression, even in politically constrained times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished by the Hungarian Publishers and Booksellers Association, this poster represents a key moment in the visual culture of Cold War-era Eastern Europe, where graphic design often carried layered meaning beneath its striking form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32.25\" x 22.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Artist\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gyorgy Kolozsvary\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Condition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
