Exhibition Opening: The Tactless Photojournalist
The exhibition The Tactless Photojournalist: Lajos Erdélyi’s Archive from the Ceaușescu Era presents, for the first time, a comprehensive overview of the hitherto little-known work of Transylvanian photojournalist, journalist, and savior of archives Lajos Erdélyi. It evokes the raw reality of Ceaușescu’s Romania through the lens of an artist who managed to document his time with an autonomous vision—even within the confines of official mandates.
Opening: June 19, 2025, 6:00 p.m.
Opening speech by György Dragomán writer
Curators: Lenke Szilágyi and Zsuzsa Zádori
The program is in Hungarian.
The exhibition is open until October 26, 2025.
