OTIUM VISU 2.0 - seeing with literature
OTIUM VISU - to see with literature - this is the aim of the literary evening accompanying the Y-profile exhibition at the Ludwig Museum, which presents the collection of fine art brought to life by the Hungarian National Bank.
The combination of literature with its co-artistic disciplines shows a mirror to images, buildings, colours, words and ideas. During the literary programme accompanying this exhibition, two contemporary Hungarian writers and poets will reflect on a painting of their choice with a literary work created for the occasion, thus responding to the values of Hungarian visual arts and the work of contemporary Hungarian artists.
