Magyar Modern. Ungarische Kunst in Berlin 1910–1933

About the Exhibition
Berlin plays a special role in the history of Hungarian art and culture. In the first decade of the nineteenth century, Hungarian artists came to the German capital seeking an international platform for their work. After the First World War and political upheaval in their own country, many Hungarian artists arrived in Berlin as exiles. For them, the cosmopolitan city became a place of political and creative freedom. The close creative exchange came to an end with the Nazis’ advent to power.
The artists on show have been almost forgotten in Germany but they are all well-known names in Hungarian art history. The works here were either created or exhibited in this city. They highlight a significant chapter in the art history of Berlin, Hungary and Europe.
This exhibition is a partnership between the Berlinische Galerie and the Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest – Hungarian National Gallery.
