The works of Zoltan Kluger and Dan Reisinger are on display in the gallery of the faculty.
The opening ceremony was held on 10th April 2018 hosted by Dr. Pál Hatos, the dean of the faculty. ’Art acts as a bridge between nations’, emphasized Yossi Amrani, the Ambassador of Israel to Budapest as he opened the exhibition. ’Similarly to Hungary, Israel is full of creative and confident people’, pointed out Prof. Dr. Ferenc Szávai, the rector of Kaposvár University in his opening speech. He also touched upon previous events of the university’s relation with the state of Israel; Ilan Mor, former Ambassador visited the university five times and he was also awarded an honorary doctorate, while Yossi Amrani was welcomed now at the campus for the second time.
The exhibition will run until 20th April 2018.
416 competitors were battling through mud, running and climbing straw bales at the cross-country running race on Saturday, 14 April at Kaposvár University. Our athletes performed excellently as they won two championship titles in the individual race and also a second and a third place in the team competition.
The race was held in bright sunshine with the participation of many local citizens, including young and older people. Kaposvár University and the co-organiser Hungarian Defense Forces had developed a more difficult course than in previous year. The runners had to jump over or climb obstacles and a wet muddy ditch was one of the challenges.
KE Cross Run is becoming more and more popular, and the success is also shown by the fact that it was included among the official sports of the Hungarian University and College Sports Federation. Both male and female individual winners, Bence Szerb and Bogi Mehring are athletes of Kaposvár University. In the team competition the university earned a second and a third place. This year’s race attracted a hundred more runners than last year.

ACEU (Alliance of Central-Eastern European Universities) held its annual congress in Prešov presided over by Prof. Dr. Ferenc Szávai Rector in December 4 and 5, 2016. The congress decided next year’s program. The university alliance also grew with a new member. With the adherence of the Macedonian International Vision University ACEU has now thirteen members. The congress next year will likely be held in the Macedonian Republic.
Subject of the proposal:
Kaposvár, Town of County Rank, is launching a competition open to fine artists aged under 35, to students attending a secondary school of visual arts, or university or college students in the form of posters, photos and film etude for the 60th anniversary of the revolution of 1956. The art exhibition, which is organized within the framework of the „Year of the Hungarian Freedom” programme series, is supported by the Memorial Committee established for the 60th anniversary of the 1956 revolution and fight for freedom.
Deadline of submission: 10 october 2016
Theme:
Youngsters who participated in the events that time are old people today; they might have told their personal stories to their children and grandchildren. Those however, who are not affected by their relatives, learn about the events from history books or can be informed by the help of contemporary photos. The political changes that happened in Hungary since then make it possible for us to commemorate this outstanding time in our history, these pivotal October days. In 2016, at the 60th anniversary, Kaposvár wishes to testify its beliefs in freedom this way. A ceremony will be held to explore the past, giving the events new colours, passing our thoughts to the next generation. For a long time people had to stay quiet and the truth had to be kept hidden about the cause of the revolution, and about the things people, had to go through.
They were not afraid of reprisal, were not frightened by the repression; they were doing what they felt to be correct. They had only one goal, the freedom. Many were swept away by the stormy events of the revolution, people had to make sacrifices, and the years coming were not free from the terrors either.
People living today also have a big responsibility for the future. The way our fate is formed depends on us, it is on us what we hand down, whether we have the courage to tell the truth, and the intention to do something to keep our freedom and keep it for our children, for the next generation.
The announcer of the proposal is expecting the submitted proposals to be works that are able to transfer the past message to today’s people, works that are lively, and youthful in accordance with the specifics of the selected genre.
Categories: Applicants can send their work in three genre categories. It is possible to apply in more categories at the same time – in this case separate application forms must be completed.
