Flesh Is Never Lost
Reflections on László Győrffy’s Exhibition
Holt Lenszkij
Existence, like a decent-enough workplace, offers opportunities for growth: anyone could, quite possibly, become a potted mass of flesh one day. There is something reassuring about this necro-Buddhism, in which being trapped within the greater whole means that the individual, in the very act of passing away, becomes a creature that continues to evolve, suggesting that the afterlife need not be sought elsewhere – in some unknown beyond – but rather here, among other places, in this upstairs exhibition venue.
Future Blues
On András Szántó’s latest book
Patrick Tayler
In methodological terms, the interview format Szántó relies on – juxtaposing highly personalised questioning with well-crafted hypotheses – hints at a data analyst’s precision. With certain recurring focal points, one gets the sense that the author-sociologist is assembling material for later analysis, effectively embedding a structured questionnaire within the fluidity of free-form discussion.
A Gen Z násza a trendek teraszán
Erdélyi Léna, Szabó Ferenc és Székely Virág Szirom kiállítása
Kis Róka Csaba
Minden egyes like egy-egy gramm virtuális cukor, amit a rácson keresztül tolnak be nekik. De a rács marad. A falak nem kőből vannak, hanem kék fényből. Digitális hullamerevségben tengődnek, a hüvelykujjak már külön életet élnek, önálló parazitaként görgetik a semmit, miközben a szívük lassan leáll a valódi érintés hiányától.
Polyphony. An exhibition of the Bratislava-based Art Fond collection in Budapest
Ludwig Museum, Budapest, 24 April – 20 September 2026
Gábor Ébli
In this current exhibition, the ensemble filling an entire wall is accompanied by action photographs, displayed at eye level, which evoke the process of their creation. Framed as a single unit, they highlight not the documentation of the steps but the process as a whole.
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
Gábor Ébli
At the core of the collection lies organic abstraction from the 1950s onward. The exhibition at Tér-Kép Gallery presents individual positions from this field, highlighting the diversity of this artistic language.

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.
