Exhibitions

Millennials have played an important role in the large-scale contemporary art collection launched by the Central Bank of Hungary, now in its fifth year of expansion. This exhibition presents a selection of them. Although an institutional collection cannot give a complete picture of an entire generation, it can reveal typical positions. The curatorial selection on display here uses the works of Generation Y young people in the collection to draw a possible profile of the generation: the Y profile.

Nedko Solakov’s humorous, site-specific installation is located in the museum’s lobby, next to the cloakroom. In this work, Solakov explores the idea of an artist who seeks to view the world from a radically different perspective—literally by turning himself upside down to shift his viewpoint.

What does it mean... what can I do if... where does it arrive... how much does it cost... how can I pay... when can I collect it...? We could go on and on with the list of frequently asked questions about the difficulties of daily life.  The exhibition focuses on questions as well as techniques of asking questions related to contemporary art, with particular emphasis on the practice of asking questions as a tool of pedagogy and art education.
