Curatorial Guided Tour in Hungarian in the exhibition “Collective Dreams and Bourgeois Villas – Site Plan of the Hungarian CIRPAC Group”.

In interwar Hungary, the CIRPAC group was one of the most important representatives of “Neues Bauen” [New building]. Farkas Molnár, József Fischer, and their associates, who were linked to Bauhaus and its mentality in several ways, ventured beyond the framework of architecture. Addressing social issues, they wrote publications and organized presentations and exhibitions—even if it meant confrontations with the authorities. Thus, besides architectural achievements, their site plan also presents the complex political conditions of the 1930s.

The program is in Hungarian.
