Title: Ludwig Goes Pop + The East Side Story.
Description: Budapest 2015, (19,2 x 23,5 cm), 396 pp. English / Hungarian text, numerous colour ills.,, paperback. ¶ Forming the basis of the Ludwig Museum, Peter and Irene Ludwig established by the collection perhaps the best-known and most famous element of the material that is presented in the Pop Art era. An unique collection that can be found inside the pop art emblematic artists (Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol, Tom Wesselmann, etc) iconic works as well as lesser-known artists (Allan D'Arcangelo Richard Lindner, etc) as well as outside the US trend ridge European representatives (Peter Blake, Richard Hamilton, David Hockney, Mimmo Rotella) works well. Only the Ludwig Museums enough material to create an exhibition that provides an overview of the international Pop Art. The pop art interesting feature lies in the fact - and this is evident in the exhibition - to the audience after quite a distant abstraction has a figurative representation in the then contemporary art, which, through casual references were familiar and seemingly easy to understand for the spectators. At the same time, paradoxically, just a critique of consumer society can give these works that the mechanism for everyday consumption transposed into art, offering a host of creations consumption. It is true that those representations that are already critically extend a theme that stands out among the (Vietnam) war or the mass media representation. The exhibition is a collaboration of Ludwig museums and prior to the presentation in Budapest, Cologne and the Ludwig Museum in Vienna is presented. Budapest substance is added to the era of Hungarian and Eastern European artists of his works (Bitter Helena, Gyula Konkoly László Lakner, _i_ková Ludmil, Coal Zsuzsa, Boris Buca, Vera Fischer, Tomislav Gotovac, Du_an Ota_evi_, Sanja Ivekovi_, B_la Kolá_ová, Jana _elibská, Natalia LL, Stano Filko, Julius Koller, Marko Poga_nik, etc). These works are based in part on the contemporary everyday object use, partly demonstrations of local culture references. The exhibition also examines indirectly to the so-called. 'Western' concepts of how to interpret art created an environment where social and cultural conditions of this trend were so different compared to the original site of the development trend.
