MOME Photography MA at the Art Market Budapest

Date: 2022.10.04
This year, the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design has launched its first English-language Photography MA programme, which is designed to train open-minded and highly autonomous artists who are able to respond sensitively and progressively to the challenges of the world.

The students of the Photography MA made their debut at the Art Market Budapest between 6 and 9 October 2022.  

The personal stories emerging from the artworks reflect on the situation drastically shaping our present and the complexity of identity and offer examples of the entwinement of family roots, transgenerational experiences and historical eras. The MOME Photography MA stall has been designed by media and theoretical studies students together. They also contributed the graphics material and texts appearing next to the photographs. In addition to the exhibited works, the portfolios of the Photography MA students will also be available for perusal to provide as comprehensive a picture of the programme as possible.

Even in its dilapidated state, the Batthyány Manor in Sitke captures the imagination of passersby. This inspiring architectural complex was the subject of a week-long course at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, and there are expectations for further collaboration with the descendants of the Batthyány family owning the house. The revitalisation project is centred around a plan for a contemporary nursing home that would also help uphold and perpetuate local values.

This year’s winner of the Elizabeth A-i-R international photography residency programme has been selected, and will be enjoying the hospitality of Erzsébetváros and MOME. Mexican photographer Alejandra Gonzales Aragon works with various mediums, chiefly video, sound, photos, and found pictures, and is also interested in performative exercises. Her main focuses include gender issues, as well as intersections of home and identity. Launched jointly by Budapest Erzsébetváros and MOME Photography in 2022, the programme this year received nearly 60 entries from 60 countries over 5 continents.

Winning projects include a hearing aid doubling as jewellery, a narrative video game, multimedia visuals, and several revitalisation projects. The certificates were presented personally by the eponym of the scholarship, world-renowned product designer and MOME Professor Emeritus Stefan Lengyel at the awards ceremony, which was a great honour to both the scholarship recipients and the university staff. The sixteen students will receive the scholarship for a period of 5 months to work on further elaborating their concepts.
