METTRIN – A New Arts Center Opens in Bánk Under the Artistic Direction of Zoltán Balázs
Prestigious Productions to Take Center Stage at the Newly Inaugurated METTRIN Center. On March 27, Hungary’s artistic landscape will welcome a unique new cultural hub: the METTRIN Center, situated on the shores of Lake Bánki. This prestigious venue will serve as a stage for both Hungarian and international productions. The visionary founders, Ferenc Karacs and Julianna Karacs-Zagyva, have appointed Zoltán Balázs, a leading figure in both Hungarian and international theater, as the center’s artistic director. Together, they aim to present high-quality cultural events, champion forward-thinking contemporary artworks, foster complex and enduring talent development, and promote artistic enlightenment through cross-border collaborations.
„Zoltán Balázs's performances are consequently on the fringe of irreality. Je ne sai quoi is a French indefinite. Izé would be the Hungarian equivalent. Balázs's performances are a search for the izé. And it is there in them. In Spanish it is called a duende, because a demon is at work in it.”
