From 7 PM, guests can fold and cut leporellos, three-dimensional postcards, colored foil images, and tracing paper negatives, which can be used to create their own “photograph”\u2014a black-and-white photogram. The term photogram comes from L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Moholy-Nagy, who began experimenting in the early 1920s with shaping and modulating light directly. Initially, he used two-dimensional objects, sheets of paper and glass, and gears, later experimenting with various transparent materials placed on photo paper. On the Night of Museums, visitors can try out this technique and create a light imprint of their paper creations before taking them home.

158 Lajos Street | From Slaughterhouse to Gallery<\/strong><\/p>\n

Permanent Exhibition at the Budapest Gallery
Location: <\/strong>Courtyard and Foyer<\/p>\n

\u00d3buda\u2019s oldest medieval house now serves as a home for contemporary art, acting as a messenger of the present \u2014 but what stories does it tell of the past? On the occasion of the Night of Museums, the gates to the mysterious cellar of this unique building will open, revealing its rich and layered history. And it\u2019s not only the house that speaks \u2014 so does \u00d3buda itself: from its Celtic heritage to the present day, visitors are taken on a journey through time.\u00a0Guests will be transported back to the 14th and 15th centuries, when the market square in front of the house was a bustling center of medieval \u00d3buda. Here, men and women, townspeople and peasants, the wealthy and the poor would gather, while next door stood the vast architectural complex of the Poor Clares, to which one of the house\u2019s former owners was connected. Visitors will also discover the various names that winding Lajos Street bore through the centuries.\u00a0The exhibition presents documentation of archaeological excavations conducted in several phases from 1969 onwards, featuring photographs and floor plans. Where did the excavations and wall studies take place? What do the Gothic doorways and window frames reveal? When and how was the building remodeled, and what parts fell victim to the demolitions of the 1970s?\u00a0Beyond the building’s history, the exhibition also explores the various roles it has played over the centuries: from a medieval slaughterhouse to the Zichy family\u2019s manorial \u201cBrew House\u201d after the Ottoman era. Visitors can even learn about a dispute between the noble family and a tenant. Finally, the exhibition sheds light on the 19th- and 20th-century ownership of the property \u2014 revealing a surprisingly diverse mix of shops and residences.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”22955,22982,22977,22950″ column_number=”4″ grayscale=”no” images_space=”gallery_without_space”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
