Contest for the memory of Eduardo Rózsa Flores

Just before his death, Eduardo Rózsa Flores sent a message to his colleagues at lelkiismeret88.hu where he was a regular contributor. The message came in a form of a picture (see it below) and in a short and somewhat cryptic sentence, “Néma nép: Üres Falak” (Silent Nation: Empty Walls).

Inspired by this message, the lelkiismeret88.hu and the bombagyar.hu news portals launched a contest for the memory of Eduardo Rózsa Flores. Contestants should incorporate verbal or visual messages, in the spirit of Eduardo, into the social environment that could follow similar strategy intrinsic in the philosophy of graffiti arts. Everyone can participate, young or old, under a nickname.


The best artworks will be published in each months on the lelkiismeret88.hu and the bombagyar.hu websites.

All artworks will be evaluated on the scale of 1 to 10. The most important evaluation criteria are: visibility, visual appearance and size.

The winners will receive Eduardo posters and stickers, in each month.

The most creative contestants will receive a T-shirt that originally made for Eduardo, in every three months. The T-shirt has a Hungary statue in the front, which is also the logo of the lelkiismeret88.hu portal and a quote from the Hungarian martyr poet Sándor Petőfi on the back; the quote goes like this,

"Ha nem születtem volna is magyarnak,
e néphez állanék ezennel én.
Mert elhagyott, mert a legelhagyottabb
Minden népek közt e föld kerekén"

The main prize is a thee day trip to Szentlászló, Croatia, that was the headquarters of Eduardo during the Croatian War of Independence. The winner will be accompanied by Eduardo's comrades and will meet with war veterans fought alongside Eduardo.
