17 - 20 June 2011. Budapest, Hungary
Hero's Square--"Art on Lake" marine sculpture show
I previously posted twice in May about this unique show of 26 European contemporary sculptors whose works appear as Art on Lake (22 May - 14 September) very close to the Museum of Fine Arts Budapest, which launched the exhibit.
I traveled to see it in the flesh.
Here is my visual record of the show.
A special commemoration ceremony of Art on Lake's catalogue unveiling happens 5 July at the museum.
Curators for Art on Lake: Dr. Alexander Tolnay, Krisztina Jerger and Peter Fitz.
Art on Lake chief organizer: Katalin Bodo'.
Director of the Budapest Museum of Fine Arts: Dr. Laszlo Baan.

Rock on and practice peace and love.

Note:
After more than two weeks living at the 3.5-star Hotel Queen Mary in the center of Budapest's 7th District (Jewish Quarter), I heartily recommend it: old on the outside, otherwise totally modern; it's an extremely excellent value. (I'm not getting a discount for this...it's my idea because it is what it is.)
The owner and staff are affable and speak English and German. Tel: 0036-1-413-3510; www.hotelqueenmary.hu; info@hotelqueenmary.hu.
There's a generous buffet breakfast that comes with the room, and everything in Budapest is close to you.
Consider art traveling to Andalusia for a week-long sculpture or mosaics workshop or walking holiday.
