Híd a közösségi aktivizmus és a kortárs művészet között
Horváth Anita és Pintér Vanda Cigány kislány ilyet nem csinál című kiállítása
Bera Viktor
A Cigány kislány ilyet nem csinál izgalmas kísérlet: egy társadalmi aktivizmust és oktatást célzó szervezet közösségét reprezentálja. A kísérő események is ennek szellemében jöttek létre: a megnyitón a Muri Phen közössége tartott szexuális és reproduktív egészség témájú workshopot.
From Nagybánya graphics to contemporary photo works
Paper-based art in the collection of László Jurecskó
Gábor Ébli
„There are also discoveries, such as Zsuzsi Ujj. All we knew about her was that she was a singer and songwriter. We heard from a friend that she had also taken photographs in the second half of the 1980s. But even after three years of asking, she refused to show us her work.”
America, on the subject of cars.
A thematic selection of photographs from the collection of György Pálfi
Gábor Ébli
A thematic focus was also needed for the systematic collection of photographs, and this was provided by his travels to America. Through his work, he often travelled to the continent, and drove a great deal whilst there. He became increasingly familiar with the American world of motoring, evolving from an initial visitor to a participant who moved comfortably within that milieu. And after a few spontaneous purchases of photographs, the realisation dawned that here, at last, was the focus he had been seeking.
From metal sculptures to activist photos
The contemporary art collection of the K-ARTS Foundation
Gábor Ébli
As the activities of the KÉSZ Group become increasingly international, the art programme and the collection can be positioned in an increasingly international manner. This was exemplified by their latest exhibition in the spring of 2024 at the Liszt Institute in Helsinki, which was preceded by the participation of several Scandinavian artists in the 2023 summer creative camp.
Colour Gestures and Human Faces
Abstract painting and portrait photography from the László Zimányi Collection

István Hoffmann's vision of contemporary collecting
Gábor Ébli
In aesthetic terms, his main message was to value the different branches of creative art equally. Amidst the dominance of painting in Hungary, this was a bold stand in favour of other forms of object creation.

Liberté × Amour
An Interview With Aurola Győrfy and Márk Rékai
Oli Horváth
We didn’t create an auditorium in a traditional sense, and this allowed the space to turn into an open, fluid ritual, where anyone could enter or leave at any time. This approach allows participation to be based on active consensus – not coercion, but choice. The viewer’s freedom to decide from which position to watch or “do” cannot be controlled by the curator or the performer.
Triple Anniversary of an Artist-Run Space, Patronage Program and Residency
Contemporary Art from the Petro–de Chalendar Collection
Gábor Ébli
The common denominator of the Collection’s segments is art patronage. International specialist Kinga Petro and composer, music director Philippe de Chalendar do not merely collect artworks; they collaborate with artists, support their international mobility, and foster the creation of new pieces. Their role as patrons is rewarded through the Collection itself.
