Csókos Varga Györgyi öröksége
New publication: The legacy of Csókos Varga Györgyi – edited by M. Nagy Emese published by the Etyek Workshop Foundation, Etyek, Hungary, 2026. The volume is a tribute to the work of artist and craftsperson Csókos Varga Györgyi (1926–2012) upon the 100th anniversary of her birth. Csókos Varga earned her diploma from the Hungarian Academy of Art in Budapest. She and her husband eventually settled in Etyek, Hungary and established a family workshop there. She worked with classical techniques as well as more experimental methods. They followed the modern European movements in art of the time, and later became involved in the folk arts revival that began in Hungary in the early 1970s. Csókos Varga Györgyi’s work in folk traditions influenced Hungary’s ‘Nomád Generation’ movement. Csókos Varga and her husband were involved in creative arts and crafts workshops in Hungary in Tokay, Hajós, Velem and so on. She worked with every imaginable craft and medium – from weaving to mosaic. Anouncement by M. Nagy Emese working under a grant from the Hungarian Academy of Arts.
