Exhibition Tükör / Mirror / Spiegel / Miroir, August 5-11, 1973, organized by László Beke
The exhibition was organized by art historian László Beke in 1973. It addressed the theme of the mirror, which had been in the focus of artists for decades and had also been used by avantgarde artists. The exhibition had a double focus in its approach. On the part of the organizer László Beke, it focused on the symbolic meanings of the mirror. On the part of the participating artists, the mirror was regarded as a tool for self-reflection. On a higher level, the mirror as a symbolic object also implied political criticism: mirroring art in a politically compulsory way. The exhibition was the first international mail art exhibition organized in Hungary.
