MODEM awaits visitors to join the English guided tour at  the exhibition titled Border Age on the 27th of February at 5:00 p.m. The exhibition Border Age celebrates the 70th birthdays of two artists from Debrecen, visual artist Zoltán Fátyol and graphic artist István Tamus, by bringing together works from the advanced stages of their careers.“Border age” refers to a period marking a complex transition process between eras that have gained stability based on their own order as well as a transition that forms a bridge between the past, which is considered to be outdated, and the future, with a gesture of moving forward. This exhibition of major local artists at MODEM is not intended to be a complete overview of their oeuvres, but it aims to provide insight into the dominant themes, motifs and technical experiments that have defined the careers of these two artists, who have different temperaments.

The exhibition of painter Zoltán Gonda, entitled “80 is not a problem!” (Nem Gond(a) 80!), will open on the 1st of March at 6.00 p.m. at  Bényi Gallery.  The artist, who has been recently awarded the Debrecen Prize for Culture, started out as a painter and  has exhibited his works in solo and group exhibitions from 1965, and then for almost two decades mainly produced graphic works alongside painting. His works of art can be found in museums, galleries and private collections in Hungary and abroad, and he has exhibited in Poland, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Germany, Romania, China, Canada, the USA, Slovakia and Macedonia. After seven years of silence, he took up the brush again, and at the same time sought a specific renewal in graphic expression. Zoltán Gonda celebrated his 80th birthday last year, and a selection of his works can be seen at the Bényi Gallery until the 14 of March.
