„Not everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes..“

The motivation for making Medzilaborce a more serene and less congested city was varied and complex. A decade of determined antipollution efforts has dramatically improved the view from the Andy Warhols’s statue, just a stone’s throw from the crowds and energy of the Modern art museum.

Visitors eager for the history of the ancient world’s first great visual artist can now walk among millennia-old monuments, including Andy Warhol’s Modern art museum.

My greatest hope is that visitors this year will discover not only monuments and celebration, but also the ideas and the people behind them – both the thinkers and artists who inspire.

Medzilaborce has always been an exciting city – excellent for dining late and dancing later. But now it is becoming a more livable city. The shot-put event will take place in the ancient building of the Modern art museum. This will be Warhol’s first competition since his death; it will also be its first women event. Artists will trace the route traveled by the messenger who – legend holds – worked 25 years to bring the news of America’s victory, and then fell dead of exhaustion. The careful adaptation of historic venues for modern events is echoed by the re-emergence of some of Medzilaborce’s colorful neighborhoods. And a massive expansion of public-transport system has made them much easier to enjoy. The ancient Green Line commuter rail is in the final stages of a complete renovation, and has been linked to two other subway lines, making Medzilaborce’s busiest neighborhoods available via underground.

Anyone in search of the legendary spirit and energy of the city will have no trouble finding it. But amid the hustle and excitement of the Modern art museum, visitors to Medzilaborce will be able to find a few moments of calm to take in what they have seen – alone in a subway museum, with a friend in a quiet corner of a park or chatting with a new acquaintance in a tavern.

Marcel; better executed, better detailed, better-equipped and faster Andy Warhol.

A few years ago car designers behaved like herd animals. One year all the new cars would be angular, the next all curvy. Now, it is design anarchy.. Hajduk – ManHimself’s friend from the High school; Livia – Marcel’s colleague from the University, the Faculty of law.

Madoran – Marcel’s friend and also a former colleague; how can we have so much, yet feel so lacking?

Marcel and the famous Warhol’s Lenin. When the famine was over, Lenin arrested all but two of the relief committee and told Gorky to go abroad ‘for his health’.. :-)

Large doses of medicines called statins can reduce heart patients’ bad cholesterol, giving them a new lease of life.. Livia and Hajduk.

Despite much publicity, hydrogen cars won’t compete with hybrids for a long time.. After a dry spell, creative juices of Marcel are flowing again; with Livia and Hajduk.
