UNITY IS MOVEMENT: Winged Altarpieces Reimagined at Longtermhandstand, Budapest

The exhibition titled 'UNITY IS MOVEMENT' at Longtermhandstand in Budapest showcases the works of seven international artists, centered on the historical concept of the winged altarpiece. Curated around a piece by Frieda Toranzo Jaeger, the exhibition explores themes of contemporary worship, reverie, and attachment. Featured artists include János Brückner, Mamali Shafahi, Domenico Gutknecht, Áron Lőrincz, Tincuta Marin, and Kata Tranker. The altarpiece serves as a dual structure of concealment and revelation through various mediums like painting, sculpture, and mosaic. Notably, Áron Lőrincz depicts pirate figures in Rococo landscapes, while János Brückner creates pixelated illusions, and Kata Tranker revisits Eve's narrative with glazed paper pulp reliefs. The exhibition transforms galleries into modern temples, where art acts as talismans, inviting viewers into fleeting belief systems.
