Three Animations by Zoltán Szilágyi Were Purchased by the Museum of Modern Art in New York

     The Romanian Filmmakers Union and the “I.L.Caragiale” Theatre and Film University  invited  the filmmaker Zoltán Szilágyi, a member of the group of creators from Animafilm in the `70s. Three short films made by him in that period entered the patrimony of the Museum of Modern Art in New York: The Gordian Knot / Nodul gordian, A The Arena / Arena and Monologue / Monolog, as Laurențiu Damian, the UCIN president announced him.
     After more problems he had with the Communist censorship, Zoltán Szilágyi left for Hungary in the `80s. These days, the director was invited to Romania, where he received the Romanian Filmmakers Union Trophy, met his former Animafilm colleagues and participated in meetings with the UNATC – Animation students.
     The Museum of Modern Art in New York patrimony also includes The Stone Wedding/ Nunta de piatră, directed by Dan Pița and Mircea Veroiu, Reconstruction / Reconstituirea, directed by Lucian Pintilie and the short film Năică and the Little Fish / Năică și peștișorul, directed by Elisabeta Bostan.
