The photo exhibition of the year opens in Budapest Museum of Fine Arts!
Works by Hungarian photographers who became famous in the United States will be on display in Budapest’s Museum of Fine Arts from Saturday.
Some 170 photographs by André Kertész, László Moholy-Nagy, Robert Capa and Martin Munkácsi and others have been selected for the exhibition organised in cooperation with the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts.
“This will be the first comprehensive exhibition of US-Hungarian photographers,” László Baán, the head of the museum, told journalists viewing the show. Baan added that the photographs have been borrowed from 17 collections in the US, primarily from the Virginia museum.
The pictures by the 32 photographers exhibited were taken in the period between the outbreak of the first world war and 1989, in Hungary, Berlin, Paris and the US.
