Angles on Kassák
As part of the 20!2 KASSÁK YEAR events, the Kassák Museum is holding a series of talks and guided exhibition tours reflecting on issues of the present and Kassák’s current relevance. The talks are categorically subjective, because the speakers – public figures from related arts and other areas of study – approach Kassák from the standpoint of their own work.
The Museum’s aim with this series is to show that the approach Kassák took as an artist and editor to the relationship between society and culture at that time, and the issues he raised, are still alive and valid today. We also want to present individual views on Kassák’s life and work, taken from unusual angles. Ultimately, we would like to see Kassák interpretations being linked to contemporary phenomena.
