The course summarizes the historical and theoretical references of the totalitarian ideologies (from antiquity through renaissance to faschism, national socialism and stalinism) with special focus on the post-2nd WW Stalinism in the Central-Eastern European region. The series of lectures are divided into two units. The units represent two different historical conditions, two different national identities, two different political structures and two different cultural policies of two neighboring "socialist" countries and the critical art practices from these countries during the periods of the totalitarian states. The first unit introduces the Hungarian case, the art policy of supported-tolerated-banned in the '60s and '70s and the illegal, underground neo-avantgarde art practices of those two decades. The second unit introduces the Yugoslavian case and its critical art of the '80s. The lecture introdices the basic terminology and historical context of totalitarian states in order to support the subject Central European Art.
