It's not often that one of Budapest's major contemporary art museums exhibits the work of true blue Hungarian artists. Usually it's a Hungarian-born American, or the like, but this time the ever-impressive LUMU has got the retrospective works of multi-faceted artist, Dóra Maurer opening tonight.
There's something for everyone in Maurer's work. Her visual output spans paintings, photographs, graphics, collage, and video work. More info here.
Also worth checking out...
Hungarian-CsángóTáncház (Folk dance)
Fono, [map] 4th December, 20:00, 500Ft
No, not Tango, Csángó : Moldavians caught somewhere between being Hungarian and Romanian. Music from Somos soundtracks a unique experience.
Yava (Concert)
A38, 4th December, 20:00, 2000ft
Judging from their aesthetic and their silly little outfits, Yava must have some money behind them. As it tends to go with self-proclaimed punk "folcore" (also the clever title of their album being released tonight on the Danube) these guys are an almagamation of sounds, but it's worth a listen.
Maximo-Pop Indie Party (Club)
Filter Club, 4th December, 20:00, free
The night starts off with live sets by Antre and Virgo. After 22:30, the punkers kick it with the indie-kids and the beat-niks to DJ sets of indie, pop, 80's new wave and post-punk until they shuffle themselves to sleep.
