The exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest focuses on the pivotal themes and projects in the extraordinary oeuvre of Agnes Denes. It includes photo documentations of the artist’s most emblematic ecological projects, including the already-mentioned Wheatfield – A Confrontation (1982). With her Pyramid series – which she started in the 1970s and is still expanding – as well as her analytical works, such as Philosophical Drawings and Isometric Systems in Isotropic Space – Map Projections, she draws attention to the paradox inherent in Western knowledge. Her photo series titled The Kingdom Series throws light on the operation of micro- and macrostructures in nature. Besides the artist’s representative graphic and photo series, the displayed photo documentations and videos provide visitors with an insight into Agnes Denes’s most significant open-air and environmental projects.
The curator of the exhibition is Mónika Kumin, art historian at the Museum of Fine Arts – Hungarian National Gallery, Budapest.
