Our exhibitions, which are organized according to innovative curatorial concepts, strive to give equal representation to contemporary endeavours and the art historical traditions of the recent past. The majority of our curated exhibitions are held in collaboration with the gallery\u2019s colleagues and invited experts from the art world. The lighting and other technical furnishings of the gallery are comparable to those of the most up-to-date European museums, and this creates a high degree of security and flexibility for the artists. The peculiar quality of the new space may offer inspiration for the creation of new works, for instance installations that make good use of the available spaces.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; el_class=&#8221;full-1024-2&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;35&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;14608&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;45&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; template=&#8221;ism_template_1&#8243; ism_overlock=&#8221;default&#8221; sm_d_text=&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>This content is locked<\/h2>\n<p>Share This Page To Unlock The Content!&#8221; bgparallax=&#8221;parallax&#8221; contentwidth=&#8221;fullwidth&#8221; toppadding=&#8221;50&#8243; bottompadding=&#8221;60&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; el_class=&#8221;full-1024-1&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5>Exhibitions of the Budapest Gallery in Lajos Street<\/h5>\n<p>The gallery\u2019s programme in its \u00d3buda venue consists of solo exhibitions and concept-based exhibitions proposed by the Gallery\u2019s art historian colleagues, exhibitions that address various questions relevant to the visual arts. In addition, we also consider it important to create opportunities from time to time for guest curators to present their ideas for group exhibitions and participants in the exchange programme to showcase their work. Furthermore, we support young artists by affording them opportunities to hold their first solo exhibitions or organize exhibitions of their works that, in their size, exceed any previous exhibitions of their compositions.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10px&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;
