Virtual tour – TRIANON 100, in the Déri Museum

Déri Museum Déri tér 1, Debrecen, Hungary

The first exhibition of this kind in the Déri Museum commemorates in a special way the 100th anniversary of the signing of the peace treaty. The curiosity of the exhibition is that it only exists in the virtual space; the creation and furnishing of the exhibition space was done with a program by the staff of the museum: Balázs Korompai, Attila Ősz, and Katalin Váradi. Besides roaming freely, the program offers the possibility of guided tours as well. The focus is mainly on the Debrecen aspects of Trianon but, of course, with a national outlook. There are three distinct units in the exhibition, the first of which is about the economic and social cultural losses. The next part provides an insight into the fate of Debrecen between the two World Wars, while the last section presents the history of the Statue of Hungarian Grief from its erection up to the present day. Maps, archive photos, and detailed information help visitors to delve deeper into the topic. Moreover, the exhibition is further coloured with poems and interactive elements.

Exhibition of Transylvania between the two world wars.

Déri Museum Déri tér 1, Debrecen, Hungary

The priceless exhibition will be on display until January. The artworks on display come from the private collection of a doctor from Oradea and his son. “The art of Transylvania between the two world wars” – this is the title of a temporary exhibition that opened  at the Déri Museum. The exhibits come from the private collection of József Böhm, who also gave a subjective guided tour at the end of the opening. The selection on show at the Déri Museum is from his own collection and that of his father, also a doctor. The entire collection comprises around 250 works of art, of which a selection is now on display at the museum. The paintings include portraits, life portraits and landscapes. The deputy mayor István Puskás attended the opening and said that the works of Transylvanian artists also enrich Hungarian culture. Although Transylvania was separated from Hungary by the storms of history, achievements have been made there – not only in literature and theatre but also in the fine arts – which are an integral part of the culture of the Hungarian nation, the deputy mayor said.
