WELCOME TO THE LIGHT ART MUSEUM BUDAPEST! OUR WEBSITE AND MUSEUM SPACE IS CURRENTLY CLOSED DUE TO PREPARATION WORKS FOR A NEW EXHIBITION AND WILL BE REOPENED FROM SEPTEMBER 2023 AFTER A SUCCESSFUL YEAR WITH MORE THAN 200.000 LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL VISITORS.
'SUPERLUMINAL'
(FROM SEPTEMBER 2023)
EXHIBITION IS COMING SOON
The upcoming exhibition will be featuring more than 40 internationally-listed artists from around the world aiming to present light as a physical and natural phenomenon as well as an indicator of technological development.
Light itself (its wave and particle nature, its physical and optical characteristics, its biological significance, etc.) is at the heart of the artworks and the various themes they explore - from supernovae to black holes, from artificial nature to parallel universes, from programmed neural networks to radiating glass objects, or from the Northern Lights encased in crystalline structures to the choreography of light on the retina - seek new perspectives for a deeper understanding of the nature of light, within or beyond the realms of visibility.
Curators: Barnabás Bencsik, Borbála Szalai
Curator assistant: Dalma Kovács
TICKETS ARE COMING SOON
'LIGHT REVOLUTION'
(30 JULY 2022 - 13 AUGUST 2023)
Our first - now closed - exhibition featured works of Hungarian artists who are considered as pioneers in light art and in the use of light as an art form. The exhibiting artists, from modernism to contemporary, defined the institution's identity by exploring a wide spectrum, including projection mapping, interactive and spatial design, holographic experiments, data art, and other techno-cultural practices.
Curators: László L. Laki, Viola Lukács, Márton Orosz, Szabolcs Vida, László Zsolt Bordos
