Artpool Art Research Center is a free, non-profit archives and exhibition space in Budapest, Hungary, dedicated to contemporary international avant-garde media arts, such as Artist's books, artistamp, mail art, visual poetry, sound poetry, conceptual art, fluxus, installation, performance. It is located at Liszt Ferenc tér, 10, first floor. It was founded in 1979 based on the "Active Archive" conception〔(György Galántai, ACTIVE ARCHIVE, 1979-2003 )〕 as a center for the type of avant-garde art that was officially condemned or prohibited by the national establishment.〔() retrieved 20 November 2009〕 It was founded, and is still run, by György Galántai and Júlia Klaniczay, as an offshoot of György’s Chapel Studio in Balatonboglár.〔()〕 Between 1979 and 1989 Artpool organised several mail art exhibitions. The exhibition "Hungary Can Be Yours" in 1984 was the last officially banned art exhibition in Hungary.〔(Juliane Debeusscher, Interview with Artpool Cofounder Júlia Klaniczay ), ARTMargins, 7 June 2011〕 From 1983 - 1985, Artpool illegally published 11 issues of "Aktuális Levél" (Artpool Letter),〔Al (Aktuális Levél / Artpool Letter) (online )〕 an underground (samizdat) magazine which was the only source on unofficial art of that time in Hungary.〔 Following the Revolutions of 1989, Artpool, which had achieved a growing international reputation, was opened publicly in 1992 with support from the Budapest Municipal Council.
