In 2025, Ákos Székely, avant-garde artist, visual poet, a leading figure in Hungarian assemblage, mail art and fluxus, would have turned 80. The aim of this mail art call is to pay tribute to Ákos Székely's life's work and personality. We are looking for works that reflect on the following theme: 5 arguments. Ákos Székely considered it important to develop the debating skills and critical thinking of his students. Open debates took place in his classes on all literary and artistic questions. A fundamental rule was that participants had to support their points with 5 arguments.

I feel like a tree
A collective poem made at the General Meeting of euroArt, the association of artist colonies in Europe, with more than 80 participants.
When I walk in the forest I dream of Alles, all, alles, le tout The jungle of my life, Wunderschöne Traume Lazy summer, A faun Türücü, A symphony
Nature, Creature, A peaceful world A bottle of wine, Borest
Wil ik duizend gedichten zingen I hear a thousand poems signing The singing of poems song Sing song along
Pilno orkestro muziko, Classical music, The whole orchestra
Silence Die poësie der stille, So vielfältig der Liebe So beglücklich A butterfly, A firefly, Alice in Wonderland
Beachhouse
Vogelgezwitscher umgebt mich Les murmurent des arbres m’enveloppe doucement Ich kann mich selbe hören Meine schritten auf dem weichen Boden
Je me sens calme Ein stillen Lãcheln von Frieden I feel like breathing in silence The sound of your heartbeat me rend heureux Meine herzschlag, The whispering of my heart The earth beating, De bomen fluisteren A extremely beautiful bird It is a good and peaceful world The elephant Het geritsel van de tiny-ten Ruhe, natur, De stem van de natuur Birds, Vögel, oiseaux Leaves, Clicking, A life in another dimension A peaceful world, Leben und Ewigkeit Das glitzern des Meeres Labsal Für meine Seele Wunderschöne Traum, Von Wildschwein boaten Balsam auf die Seele
Eine grüne schützende Dad, Floating green Einen grünen schenken Dad The sounds of the leafs Girl, child, a melody, grass growing Mosaik des lebens
The singing of the wind I want to build a howe Colors in autumn, a burning woodfire Eine melodie des Lebens
Je me sens calme les rayons doré peignent le sol Wunderbar, Ruhe, Hummus Manifold vibrant sometimes unexpected ever shiny, daunting fabulous Eine ruhige umarmung Sie sind mir vertraut Fur mich so berauschend Bomen en bloemen praten Magie, Zauber Peace, Eine rose elephant, Freiheit Ruhe von frieden
Ich koidn woid da fühl i mi manchmal ganz schee alt Im koidn woid da is a stand da Louis Corinth und hat gemalt
Comme connecté au firmament

6/0422:32 - Birte : But I need to take a second look on Saturday. Will then start the other canvas. I am really happy and somewhat content at the moment. But I will not show you beforehand what I am doing. It will be a surprise.
Op 12 december 1922 werd Christian Dotremnt geboren in Tervuren waar hij ook verbleef toen hij de logogrammen uitvond in "Hotel des Valises" en zijn meesterwerken maakte in "Villa Pluie des Roses".
De Vrienden van de School van Tervuren maakten een succesvolle expo die Dotremonts verbale en visuele kracht toonde die opende precies op zijn 100ste geboortedag.
Ik nam deel met een korte ode "kzie t'écris mer sea" uitgevoerd in COlgate ultrBRite en Aquafresh, Dotremont was immers ook medestichter en bezieler van Cobra.
