'The autumn mist disappeared by morning. The 'clickers' of the villages along the River Ipoly gathered in the gardens to participate at the beauty contest on the meadow in front of the old church of Nagybörzsöny. The homemade agricultural machines lined up in front of the jury. Showing their characteristics from the point of view of aesthetics and structure, materials gathered from everywhere made working by some ingenuity.
Endre Koronczi planed the idea of a 'clicker' beauty contest for the art application announced by the Ministry of Economics and Transport in accordance with the program 'the EU comes to us'. The organization that came to life eventually was risky and at the same time unexpectedly successful 'public art' deed. The gathered 'clickers', the farmers, curators, and art experts spent days by talking about the boundaries of art.' (András Bán, expert)
The first prize winner of the 'clicker' beauty contest held on 22, November, 2003 in Nagybörzsöny was Zoltán Czibulya. His artwork can be viewed in the Museum of Transport in Budapest until 2, May, 2004.
