Egyre ritkábban hallunk utcai prostitúcióról. Ennek oka, hogy az internet elterjedésével a legtöbb európai országban, így Magyarországon is kifejlődött a prostituáltaknak egy jól elkülöníthető, népes rétege, ahol a lányok online népszerűsítik a szolgáltatásaikat, független, fizetős hirdetőoldalak segítségével. De mi a helyzet azokkal, akik az utcán maradtak? Hogyan élnek ma, mekkora igény van rájuk? Milyen a magánéletük? https://www.facebook.com/events/901738877379028/

Call for Entries - PH21 Gallery

Feminine / Masculine A curated international photography exhibition February 10 – March 5, 2022 ​Portrayals of femininity and masculinity are, without doubt, central to a number of art forms, photography not being an exception. The past few decades have given rise to – often heated – discussions and criticisms of past, recent, and current photographic practices for their lack of reflection on the assumptions, stereotypes, and prejudices surrounding photographic approaches to femininity and masculinity. Fine art and commercial works alike have been critiqued for the potential consequences of their approach and presentation. Historically femininity and masculinity have been conceived, among others, as oppositions, as complements of each other, or as positions on a continuum. There are hardly any ways of portraying femininity and masculinity that would or could not be considered trivial, conservative, pretentious, demeaning, distasteful, clichéd or even offensive by some. It often seems that everything has been both said and photographed about this subject, and yet, it is not possible to ignore the persistence of the theme in our contemporary visual culture. What is it that we can still value and possibly revive from the rich history of photography; are there any novel ways left to approach this subject with a fresh critical eye? PH21 Gallery invites photographers to submit their work for a group exhibition themed Feminine / Masculine. We are looking for submissions from all photographers who are interested in this subject and would like to share their work with a wider international audience through the exposure of PH21 Gallery. The theme is broadly construed, as the photographic portrayal of femininity and masculinity is independent of generic or stylistic constraints. Indeed, we are interested in all possible creative photographic interpretations of the theme. One curator’s choice and up to three honourable mentions will be announced. The juror’s choice receives three free entries for any upcoming themed group exhibition calls at PH21 Gallery. (Each free entry includes up to 15 images.) Curators: Zsolt Bátori and Borbála Jász Zsolt is a philosopher of art and photographer. He is an associate professor at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics and at Kodolányi János University, where he currently serves as Head of the Research Centre for Art and Creative Industries. He visits the University of Murcia in Spain for regular research collaborations. He has conducted research and taught philosophy of art and photography courses at various universities in Hungary, the United States, Spain and Argentina, and has exhibited his photographic work internationally. Zsolt is also the founder and director of PH21 Gallery. Visit Zsolt's website. Borbála is an art historian and a philosopher of art. She works as a researcher at the Institute of Philosophy, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and as an assistant professor at Budapest University of Technology and Economics. She is responsible for the operations of our new Project Room at Ráday 52, and she also works with our social media accounts and website.​ Submission deadlines: Early bird deadline: December 6, 2021 Final deadline: December 14, 2021 ​ Notification: All entrants will be notified 10-15 days after the final deadline. Exhibition dates: February 10 – March 5, 2022 There are two submission options: A) Standard submission: Until the early bird deadline: You may submit 3, 5, 7, 10, or 15 images; these may be all individual works, or they may also include a series of maximum 5 photographs.

feLugossy László: Lejárt Lemez fotókiállítás

Jelen kiállítás a 2000 és 2010 közötti munkáinak válogatását mutatja be, melyek az eddigiekhez hasonló szellemben, a művésztől megszokott formabontó intellektussal készültek. Online megnyitó a galéria facebook oldalán: 2021. november 18-án 20 órakor Bejelentkezik: feLugossy László Megtekinthető: december 18-ig keddtől péntekig 10 és 14 óra, szombaton 10 és 13 óra között Részlet a Lejárt Lemez vagyok című manifesztációból: az ember fokozatosan lejárt lemez lesz és egyszer csak megakad a torkán a masina tűje vannak dolgok amiket nem akkor talál meg az ember amikor keresi hanem később egy másik alkalommal amikor nem is keresi Részlet a Lejárt Lemez vagyok című manifesztációból: Minden, ami operatív az lehet, hogy örökre úgy marad? Már előre látszott, hogy a végtelennel érünk végbe. Dohányzásra kijelölt vesztőhely! Azt mondják, hogy még a légüres térben is lehet egy másik, egy eldugott vákuum. Pályázatból kétséges. Vár az édes módosítás hiánya. Amikor az újdonság is megöregszik. Egy csinos, jó alakú ultralebegés volt a Sapka Múzeum helyettes vezetője. Az alacsony hőmérséklet egy kimagasló férfival kacérkodott. Aztán útra keltünk, hogy a lehetőségek szerint megismerjük az ÚT porát. feLugossy László a kelet-európai avantgard megkerülhetetlen alakja. Sokszínűsége nem ismer határokat: képzőművész, színész, filmrendező, író, performer és underground zenész egy személyben. 1968-tól 1977-ig efZámbó Istvánnal szervezői a szentendrei szabadtéri kiállításoknak, emellett Szirtes János társaságában akciókat, happeningeket rendeznek. 1972-ben alapítója a szentendrei Vajda Lajos Stúdiónak, melynek művészköréből megalakuló legendás art-rock formáció, az A. E. Bizottság énekese és szövegírója 1979 és 1986 között. 1990-ben Munkácsy-díjat kapott. Pályája kezdetén nagy hatással volt rá Tóth Menyhért festészete. (1986 óta csoportos és egyéni kiállításai rendszeresek.) Kísérletező alkotói processzusát ösztönösség, spontaneitás és természetesség jellemzi. Kollázstechnikát alkalmazva fest, rajzol, fotót applikál, videókat készít, verseket ír. Munkáihoz – a pop art tárgykultúra jegyében – a legkülönfélébb hétköznapi tárgyakat használja fel. Installációin, objektjein, egyedi tárgykollázsain és különböző hordozóanyagra (fa, vászon, szúnyogháló, papír, stb.) felvitt akril/olaj festményein keresztül mindig újszerűségre törekszik. Az egyes művészeti ágakon átívelő, szerteágazó munkássága behatárolhatatlan, korszakokra nem bontható. Művei elválaszthatatlanok egymástól, és egyfajta önálló, független rendszerben működnek. Immanens képi világának alapelemeit a jellegzetes magyar viszonyok ihlették, amikből sajátos filozófiai minőséget teremt. A fejlődésben visszamaradt társadalmak lassú pusztulását megidéző asszociációi cseppet sem tolakodóak, épp ellenkezőleg: ironikus módon megnyerni és befogadni akarnak. Vizuális vonzerejét az élénk színfoltokkal tarkított, jelképekben gazdag ábrázolásmód, és a mögötte megbúvó kíméletlen őszinteség adja. A szabálytalan, olykor felcserélt végtagokkal megformált, rejtélyes női alakjai mintha néma tekintetükkel üzenni akarnának. Az egyes narratív művek meghökkentő élethelyzeteket tárnak fel, melyeknek része a neoprimitivizmust sugárzó groteszk formaiság és a leplezetlen szexualitás körmönfont ötvözete.
