HADIK // FISZ / Journey around my jelly
Six young writers were asked to respond subjectively to a selection of photos from Fortepan's rich collection of images. The resulting shortlists will be published on the FISZ and Hadik Facebook pages from 16 January. In early March, the image and text pairs will be exhibited in the Hadik gallery.

- 16:00-18:00HADIK // FISZ / Journey around my jelly
Frigyes Karinthy - a former regular of the Hadik - was a great magician with words, using anagrams, intarsia, esperente, goat rhymes and gibberish as his frequent devices. He made his mark in all genres, and gained fame with his humorous sketches and literary caricatures. And he often considered himself a poet, although he wrote few poems, which were more free verse, thought-provoking.

Hadik Café
The Hadik Café was at its peak in the 1910s, when Karinthy, Kosztolányi, Déry, Móricz and Aranka Bőhm regarded the place as their living room. In 2010, the Hadik House was revived in its original splendour with two catering and cultural spaces: the classic Hadik Café, designed to honour the spirit of its great predecessors, and the Szatyor Bar and Gallery, which reinterprets the bohemian world of the turn of the century in a more progressive, contemporary atmosphere. Both places have a strong and quality gastronomy and a cultural profile. The Hadik and the Satoyor are the permanent home of literary evenings, art talks, musical performances and exhibitions, which we hope will revive the long sought-after café and cultural life of which the Hadik was one of the strongest bastions in its heyday.
