Anadol's Rumi Dreams on Display at MODEM in Debrecen Until 29 Sept.
On display in the Debrecen gallery until Sept 29. A video installation entitled Rumi Dreams by renowned Turkish-American contemporary multimedia artist Refik Anadol has been put on display at the MODEM in Debrecen, in eastern Hungary.

The large-scale video work on a 32sqm LED wall was inspired by the classic works of poet, philosopher and theologian Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi, who lived in Anatolia in the 13th century.

Speaking at the opening on the weekend, Turkish Ambassador Gülşen Karanis Ekşioğlu said that “Rumi’s messages of love, understanding, tolerance and forgiveness are well-known and are today of greater significance than ever before”.

She noted that the event had been organised as part of the Hungary-Türkiye cultural season which celebrates the 100th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations, adding that this was the first time that Türkiye was presented in Debrecen.

After being showcased at the MoMA in New York, in Las Vegas’ Sphere and the Grammy Gala, Anadol’s artwork will be on display in the Debrecen gallery until Sept 29.

Online since 2014, this source states its aim as "to provide a complete, unbiased picture of Hungary”. It continues by acknowledging this “does not necessarily mean that our writers do not have their own opinions, sometimes reflected to a degree in the articles they publish”, and it's really worth readers keeping that in mind. Another stated aim is to become ‘the leading English-language news portal of Hungary’, a position held for 20 years by good old independent XpatLoop! Still our team has no issue with positively highlighting one or two useful articles published by Hungary Today here with permission for your interest.

    Festival season is hotting up in Hungary, so here's a guide to what's worth visiting for a one-off concert or a week long party in the open air. The biggie is always Sziget, this year with Billie Eilish and Sleaford Mods headlining, but it’s worth considering the more niche, boutique bashes like V4, SZIN, Katlan, OZORA, and the cultish Kolorádó in the Buda hills.
