Bridging the human divide
The Budapest Sun, 21 December, 2006 (Budapest, Hungary)

"It works. The stories are of 'ordinary people, who lived through an extraordinary moment in history, Some gained, others lost. A few were indifferent, many were forced to act. Some were heroic while others were pragmatic. Some just looked out for themselves.' Their stories are often revealing, frequently raw with emotion. Even the cover photo, of a hugely magnified button compass, replete with Soviet star on its time-worn face, has a story to tell."

Sorting out '56
Montreal Mirror, 16-22 November, 2006 (Montreal, Canada)

The promise of a faraway land
Magyar Hirlap, 24-29 October, 2006 (Budapest, Hungary)

"The subject of this investigation, the stories of the 1956 emigrants and their family members whom they left behind, is far from customary... That we truly have a need for stories of individual fates was demonstrated by the disturbances that took place during the commemorations of the revolution. More and more people have discovered that the past is far from being black and white."

56ers and their families left behind
Budapest Times , 24-29 October, 2006 (Budapest, Hungary)

"A series of emotional experiences, recorded and related in an honest manner, reflecting both the pain and the joy which people felt at leaving their homeland, their family and friends, and discovering for themselves a new life in Canada. The reflections of brothers, sisters, cousins and other family members who remained in Hungary adds an unusual and interesting element, not often found in popularised accounts of 1956 emigrés."

Life here is a whirling, rattling, chaotic existence
Népszabadság, 1 July, 2002 (Budapest, Hungary)

"Selling art is like selling a pair of shoes", says the cultural 'salesman' and agent of Hungarian dance, art, music and textile creations. Andrew Princz, who is a Canadian of Hungarian origin, is an art historian turned journalist who now works as a cultural manager in Budapest. During the past week, Princz was looking for buyers for film projects at his stand at the DISCOP television market held in the capital."
