SHUNK-KENDER. ART IN THE EYE OF THE CAMERA (1957-1983)
27 March - 5 August 2019
First retrospective devoted to the photographers Harry Shunk (1924-2006) and János Kender (1937-2009).
Commissioned by artists and their gallery owners, Shunk and Kender captured opening nights, biennials, performances and artists at work in their studios, at home or elsewhere. Both an essential documentation of late 20th century avant-garde art and a photographic work in its own right.
