Still. Photography at the Museum
7 July – 6 October, 2013.
Still – the word may stand for deep silence, a static photograph, a picture frame, or may refer to the time up to and including the present moment. This word of rich significance stands as the title of an exhibition of internationally recognized, mostly European photographers and video artists in the second floor exhibition hall of MODEM, Debrecen.
Risk Factor. Intermedia 2.0
22 June – 15 September 2013
Exactly 20 years ago, in 1993, the Intermedia Program of the Hungarian University of Fine Arts started as an outcome of the academic students’ revolution of 1990.
