History & Criticism

<p><div>In cooperation with the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, we are organizing an exhibition of works by photographers of Hungarian origin who emigrated to the United States. This large-scale exhibition, featuring nearly thirty artists, aims to showcase the extremely rich Hungarian-American photographic heritage, including works by André Kertész, Cornell Capa, György Kepes, László Moholy-Nagy and Martin Munkácsi. The unique concept of the exhibition is to take a comprehensive look at the work of Hungarian- origin photographers who have become known in the United States, juxtaposing the work of world-famous photographers with that of lesser-known artists.</div></p>

<p><div>As part of the series showcasing prominent figures of Hungarian art Hungarian National Gallery, Budapest is organizing a large- scale retrospective exhibition of one of the most important Hungarian painters of the twentieth century, Margit ANNA (1913-1991), a distinguished member of the art group Európai Iskola (European School). Margit Anna's painting is both sensual and ruthlessly clear- sighted. She combines elegant decorativeness with a search for the soul. Her childlike figures, painted within the European School, spoke for her and displayed suffering beyond human comprehension. In her later art, folk art and folklore appear, mourning and comedy are intertwined, and in her late paintings her puppets evoke scenes from the Old Testament with the sadness and irony of remembrance. The art group Európai Iskola (European School) aimed to connect to progressive Western European art. Their choice of name - referring to École de Paris - indicates their French orientation. As part of their activities, the group organized a French-Hungarian exhibition in Budapest, exhibiting well-known French masters ranging from Bonnard to Picasso.</div></p>

<p><div>The Knorr family occupied the building for seven years, after which, for reasons unknown, they sold it to Ferenc Hopp, a well-respected businessman who had already completed his first trip around the world, and who moved there from his apartment on the Grand Boulevard as he needed more and more space for his ever-expanding collection. In his first years in his new home, he changed little on the house itself, but he transformed his garden into one of the most magical sights of Budapest. On his first tour of the globe, Hopp had visited the famous botanical gardens in Buitenzorg (now Bogor), a Dutch colonial city on West Java. The experience moved him so deeply that he decided to create similar surroundings of his own in Budapest. The Dutch name Buitenzorg can be loosely translated as 'without worries', and as his own home and garden were intended to drive away troubles, he named the villa "Buitenzorg Residence". He filled the garden with exotic plants and with curious objects he had collected on his travels, much to the amazement of the contemporary press. This volume is intended to commemorate this "worryless" garden by presenting its history, a description of the flowers, architectural features and landscaping elements it contained, and photos taken in it and of it.</div></p>
