Multidisciplinary design and research

The lecture series of the MOME Architecture Institute presents outstanding national and international architects, designers, and thinkers, who will provide a glimpse into their work around the built environment. Our next speaker will be teacher at KU Leuven and associate of Rotor Stijn Colon.

Founded in 2005 and based in Brussels, Rotor is a multidisciplinary design and research organisation focusing on material flow and reuse. It seeks to foster dialogue on resources, waste, and obsolescence through research, exhibitions, conferences, and publications.

In addition to actively coordinating large-scale demolition operations, Rotor is also involved in architecture, interior design, and urban planning projects. In 2016, Rotor Deconstruction was founded, which specialises in the salvaging and trading of building components. Brussels-based Rotor and Rotor DC have over 20 employees.

Stijn Colon is an architect and researcher at Rotor, and has worked on design jobs, exhibitions, publications, as well as research and education projects as an expert. He is co-author of Ad Hoc Baroque, a soon-to-be-published book on the post-war reuse architecture of Marcel Raymaekers. Since 2020, he also teaches architecture at KU Leuven.

Further education credits for visiting the Architectural Matters lectures are available from the Chamber of Hungarian Architects. The talks are free and open to the public. For attendees collecting credits from the Chamber, prior registration is required.

The programme has produced hundreds of professionals who now work across Hungary’s cultural and creative sectors, including strategists for Hungarian and international design brands, professionals working in contemporary art galleries, leaders of non-profit initiatives focused on social inclusion, as well as doctoral researchers and university lecturers. Their achievements include curating the Hungarian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, producing Beton.Hofi’s latest music video, and building the multimedia success of OIEE (Bence Kocsis). Now in its 40th year and 15 years into its MA format – which transitioned to English-language delivery two years ago – MOME’s comprehensivee manager training programme integrates business and artistic expertise, as well as creative and commercial perspectives from the outset. The anniversary year will be marked by a series of programme-specific events, beginning with the MOME KIKI finissage on 4 March.

Dupla évfordulót ünnepel a MOME menedzserképzése! 2026-ban kettős jubileumot ünnepel a Moholy-Nagy Művészeti Egyetem (MOME) menedzserképzése. Az intézmény jogelődjében, az Iparművészeti Főiskolán 1986 februárjában indult a művészeti menedzserek képzése. A képzés máig két sávon fut: egyetemi diplomát nyújtó nappali formában, illetve heti egynapos továbbképzésként. Az évtizedek során mindkét forma megújult. A nappali képzés eleinte ötéves, osztatlan Designmenedzsment (DM) verzióban designereknek adott a másodszakjukon menedzsment ismereteket. A bolognai átállás során ebből született meg a Design- és művészetmenedzsment MA szak (DMM). Ez a mesterképzés minden – gazdasági, bölcsész, művészeti vagy társadalomtudományi – alapszakos diplomázó előtt nyitott, eddig kétszáz hallgató végezte el, és idén diplomázik a 15. évfolyam. A képzés két éve angol nyelven zajlik Art and Design Management MA (ADM) néven, a MOME további öt angol nyelvű mesterszakjával karöltve. A nappali formával párhuzamosan, máig népszerű a posztgraduális menedzserképzés. Az egykori tanfolyam szakirányú továbbképzésként van akkreditálva, kétféle specializációval választható, Múzeumi és Kultúramenedzsment (MUKUME) néven.
