The biggest joint exhibition in (Csíkszereda) Miercurea Ciuc of the Hungarian National Gallery and the greater museums in the Szekler region.

In its third week, the most important exhibition organized this year at the Szekler Museum of Ciuc welcomed its 5000th visitor. Beside its international character, the Baia Mare art colony is an important point of reference for the Hungarian tradition in visual art. The objective of the latest ambitious museum initiative in the Szekler area is to enrich the Transylvanian cultural identity and artistic mother tongue.
The Munkácsy exhibition, attracting a number of 62.000 visitors, has revealed a real social demand for valuable exhibitions of a European standard.
The most important event organized this year by the Szekler Museum of Ciuc concentrates again upon our outstanding values of visual art. The topic chosen represents our cultural heritage and the European character of Hungarian art, it simultaneously stands for tradition and modernity.
In other words: the members of the Baia Mare art colony showed the world how it was possible to create a regional circle of art on home soil, far from the great western European centers, a circle which would act as and integrating power on one hand but which would, owing to its open-workshop character, also become a renowned school besides the great centers in Budapest, Munich, Paris.
The exhibition presenting the masterpieces of the Baia Mare painting school is unprecedented in the Szekler region, and we are convinced it will make up for a significant void in the cultural identity of the Hungarian community in Transylvania.
The 55 works by 20 renowned painters are exhibited in a space of 300 square meters, in chronological order, beginning with the founding generation and until the art of the thirties. The majority of art objects provided by the Hungarian National Gallery have been exhibited on the most important sites in Sankt Petersburg, Vienna, Krakow, Florence and Paris - they are on display now in Miercurea Ciuc. The paintings borrowed from museums in the Szekler region complete the collection at the core of this exhibition. It is important to note that this comprehensive exhibition of paintings from the Baia Mare art colony is unprecedented on the territory of Transylvania.
