Béla Lajta’s Commemorative Exhibition, 11. 10. 2010 – 11. 02. 2010.

Text: Péter Haba

Organized in the Municipal Archives of Budapest, this exhibition is primarily meant to attract attention. Prepared after a comprehensive project of data collection, it is the first one in its kind to represent the oeuvre of great importance and significance. Based on a large number of original documents, it is the most extensive one regarding both the designer’s activities and more personal relics of his life. As a result, the exhibition reveals those aspects of Lajta’s art which have not been in the focus of attention so far or were hardly known till now.
