Cura­ted by Zsolt Pet­rá­nyi Ins­p­ira­tions and inf­lu­en­ces form a very comp­lex sys­tem in art. Ar­tists are often con­cer­ned with quest­ions which are not strictly re­la­ted to the tech­ni­que they apply. Pain­ters are often ins­pi­red by the be­auty of a com­pu­ter print or a photo, those who make pho­to­gra­phic works are often cap­ti­vat­ed by the pic­to­ri­al qu­a­lity of a sur­face, ot­hers are inf­lu­en­ced by the world and the­mes of ad­ver­ti­se­ments or pop cul­tu­re. The title of the ex­hi­bit­ion re­fers to this phe­no­me­non. We exa­mi­ned such ar­tis­tic ma­ni­fe­sta­tions, which, si­mil­arly to no­i­ses au­dib­le th­ro­ugh a thin wall, or ac­ci­den­tal­ly caught te­lep­ho­ne con­versa­tions, tell us about this broad in­te­rest, point­ing beyond the world of art. As we wis­hed to give re­la­ti­vely large place to the young ar­tists, in the side rooms solo ex­hi­bit­ions can be seen. In the cent­ral rooms a group ex­hi­bit­ion takes place, fo­cus­ing on the quest­ions of the paint­ing on the Mil­len­ni­um, on the inf­lu­en­ce of the en­vi­ron­ment in the work of art, on the con­cept of "pro­ject work" which co­vers joint pro­duc­tions or oc­cas­io­nal ma­ni­fe­sta­tions which dif­fer from the main ac­ti­vity of the ar­tist. The title of this part of the ex­hi­bit­ion could be Media and Art - Self and Si­tu­a­ti­on De­fi­ni­ti­on. We made a se­lec­ti­on from the works of the ge­ne­ra­ti­on of the twenty- and thirty-years-old: the ex­hi­bit­ion rep­re­sents a spe­ci­al as­pect, the spi­rit of the "con­tem­por­ary pop". It is a stand­point, the de­monstra­ti­on of a pos­sib­le strategy of art. The con­cept­ion does not un­der­take the sys­te­ma­tic pre­s­en­ta­ti­on of con­tem­por­ary Hun­ga­ri­an art. Ar­tists: A.
