'Even if I were to tie-dye, write poetry or folk songs, the medium of photography would keep haunting me'

Hungarian Cubism is 'a quasi virgin territory, a term that has not even deserved a subchapter in our handbooks yet.' – declared Gergely Barki on the pages of the August issue of Artmagazin. Today, the research of this specific historical period seems to keep up the interest beyond the circles of committed art historians. The project of Péter Puklus revolving around the pioneer Hungarian cubist sculpture, the ‘Head’ of József Csáky has gained attention with the aforementioned article simultaneously. The visitors of the Amsterdam-based Unseen Photo Fair & Festival are exposed to the remake of the Csáky statue on posters, citylights, entry tickets etc. Péter Puklus who was in charge of the the complete visual identity of the festival was interviewed by Szilvi Német about the rediscovery of the lost sculpture, the remake process and the campaign in general.

Pretty Vacant

Urban spaces are constantly in flux. Changing, growing, deteriorating as we (culture and society) move around them. Leaving in our wake a socio-political architectural debris within our cities. The abandoned and the vacant, the pieces that got left behind.
