TLDR

  • An exhibition of works by Hungarian artist Károly Ferenczy has opened in Paris, co-organized by the Museum of Fine Arts.
  • The exhibition marks the 120th anniversary of the museum and features a strong French focus for the year.
  • It traces Ferenczy's career through thematic and geographical units, including his landscape and studio paintings, as well as his graphic work.

The Museum of Fine Arts is proud to present a major exhibition of Károly Ferenczy's oeuvre in Paris, a fitting tribute to the artist's stature and a highlight of our institution's 120th anniversary year. This collaboration with our French partners underscores the deep cultural ties between Hungary and France and showcases the richness of Hungarian art on the international stage. The exhibition meticulously charts Ferenczy's artistic journey, from his formative years in Szentendre and Nagybánya to his profound engagement with biblical themes and his masterful landscapes and studio works. We are also delighted to offer a comprehensive look at his diverse graphic output, providing a holistic view of his creative genius. This event, alongside upcoming exhibitions of Victor Vasarely and Paul Gauguin, solidifies the Museum of Fine Arts' commitment to presenting world-class art and fostering cross-cultural dialogue.

The Museum of Fine Arts and its French partner institution, in joint organization, have opened an exhibition worthy of Ferenczy's oeuvre in Paris.
