One of the tasks of the Hungarian Academy of Arts is to esteem, support and encourage Hungarian artists. For this reason, each Section of the Hungarian Academy of Arts annually presents two awards to outstanding representatives of their respective Sections, and also bestows grants upon four exceptionally talented members of the middle generation and two lifework awards upon the most excellent creative artists of the older generation.

This chamber exhibition presents works by the following artists, who were granted scholarships in the years 2020-2021 by the Hungarian Academy of Arts’ Section of Fine Arts: fine artists Péter Márkus, Csaba Sánta, László Szotyory and Béla Szepessy as well as recipients of the Academy of Arts’ lifework award fine artist Erzsébet Mezei and arts writer Tihamér Novotny. Also on display are works by the recipients of the 2020 Award of the Hungarian Academy of Arts’ Section of Fine Arts Tibor Kolozsi and Ákos Muzsnay.
