“Kertész, Moholy-Nagy, Capa… / Hungarian Photographers in America (1914–1989)” Exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest
Art and Heritage in Central Europe
This exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts is the first comprehensive presentation of the work of Hungarian émigré photographers in America. Realised in conjunction with the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, the large-scale exhibition featuring more than 30 photographers, including André Kertész, László Moholy-Nagy, Martin Munkácsi and Robert Capa, seeks to present the extraordinarily rich Hungarian-American photographic legacy through the works of world-renowned artists and those less known in Hungary displayed side by side. The exhibition is organised as part of the Bartók Spring International Art Weeks.
The exhibition displays more than 170 works by 32 prominent Hungarian émigré artists who settled in America. Although not all of them achieved international fame, they all played a significant role in their respective photographic genres in America.
The curators of the exhibition are Alex Nyerges, the director of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and Péter Baki, the director of the Museum of Hungarian Photography.
The exhibition is available at the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest until 25 August 2024.
