Save the date -  Wendesday, 2nd of September at 6 p.m. – private view of Tradition and Receptiveness – Current Developments in Hungarian Photography, 10 young Hungarian photographers in a show curated by Peter Baki – the director of Hungarian Museum of Photography.



Works by members of the Association of Hungarian Photographers, which was established in 1956 and remains the largest photographic association in Hungary, have been selected for the exhibition. The pictures present developments in contemporary photography in Hungary as well as the various photographers’ ideas that are based on the traditions of Hungarian photography. The selected works also demonstrate the process of integration into international developments.



The photography of Zsolt Péter Barta, Imre Drégely, Aliona Frank, Sándor áron Károly and Károly Minyó Szert can be traced to roots in Hungarian experimental photography. Even so, most of the works were made using twenty-first-century photographic methods. On the other hand, the photo-reports of Lenke Szilágyi, Tamás Dezső, Tivadar Domaniczky, Zsolt Szamódy, and Zoltán Vancsó demonstrate the survival of classical photojournalism.

Exhibiton cocurator - Gabriella Uhl.

Refreshing cocktails will be served from 6 to 7 p.m. - don't be late!
Exhibition will remain open for visitors until 26th of September.
