> Protest against the Merger of the Hungarian National Gallery with the
> Museum of Fine Arts
>
> On 29 February 2012 the Hungarian National Gallery will cease to exist
> as an independent institution. Something unprecedented will happen:
> without plausible or acceptable explanation, with unreasonable and
> incredible haste, and within four months, the independence of a
> 55-year-old internationally acknowledged institution, one of Hungary’s
> leading museums, will be eliminated. By being merged into the Museum  
> of
> Fine Arts, which is about the same size and has an international field
> of interest, the Hungarian National Gallery – the main institution
> entrusted with the collection and maintenance of Hungarian works of  
> art
> – will lose its institutional and curatorial independence. The
> justification given for this hasty merger gives rise to the fear that
> in the future there will be no venue to present Hungarian art in all
> its richness and complexity from the earliest times to the present  
> day,
> to the loss of the visitors interested in this field of culture. The
> unwelcome transfer of the more than 130,000 works of art connected  
> with
> the ill-conceived merger will be an incalculable burden to the central
> budget and will expose these invaluable treasures of Hungarian  
> cultural
> heritage to grave risks.
> It is not too late to stand up against it.
