Baász Imre Collection

The bequest of Imre Baász is proof of the progressiveness of his thinking, the innovativeness of his artwork, and the dynamic cooperation in which he engaged in times of political, cultural, and intellectual oppression. In the 1980s, the progressive, radical creative work was detached from the capital Bucharest, which served as the perpetual center. In this reversed centrum–periphery relationship, the periphery offered more freedom, and it ensured security and the possibility of invisibility. An important example from Transylvania of the micro-groupings which promoted progressive ideas and Western European styles and methods is the MaMű Association of Târgu-Mureș, which actively encouraged the practice of concept art, mail art, action art, and abstract artistic language in general. Imre Baász, though never an official member of the MaMű, shared their artistic view and language, and his work in the town of Sfântu Gheorghe can be considered as the prolongation of the Association’s work.

伊姆雷·巴亚兹的遗产充分证明了其思想的进步性、艺术作品的创新性以及他在政治、文化和知识压迫时期所展现的动态合作精神。在20世纪80年代，激进的前卫创作与首都布加勒斯特相脱离，后者长期充当永恒的中心。在这一中心与边缘的倒置关系中，边缘地带提供了更多的自由，并确保了安全与隐匿的可能性。特兰西瓦尼亚地区的一个重要例子是马穆协会（MaMű Association of Târgu-Mureș），该协会积极倡导进步思想、西方欧洲的风格与方法。尽管伊姆雷·巴亚兹并非马穆协会的官方成员，但他共享了其艺术观点和语言，他在圣乔治（Sfântu Gheorghe）镇的作品可以被视为协会工作的延续。
