För några år sedan fick ordet en annan betydelse: att projicera bilder eller videor på stora, offentliga ytor, på byggnader eller gator t ex. Budapest är en stad som passar till ett sådant “projekt”. Ungerns huvudstad är en bra terräng för ljusmålningar med sina stora, 4-5 vånings gamla byggnader och – till skillnad från Prag – samtidigt stora, öppna platser eller torg framför dem. För några år sedan var det Peter Kozma (http://www.mvaros.org, bilder: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mvaros/sets/), som ”målade” olika målningar på Akademins fasad, och för några veckor sedan skrev vi just om verkliga väggmålningar i Budapest . Dessa målningar målades på kvällerna, med hjälp av ljusprojicering. En ny teknik (s k building projection video mapping) introducerades i lördags av det ungerska Visualpower AB på Museernas natt: denna är ljusprojicering med rörliga bilder, 3D animationer eller videor på byggnader, som på så sätt kommer till liv. Dessa videor använder byggnadens arkitektur, alla animationer är tillpassade till byggnaden och försöker att utnyttja fasadens olika former och material. Ett av nattens program var Paint Up! byggnadsmålningen, en tävling bland 12 unga ungerska konstnärer, som projicerade sina verk på Nationalgalleriets innersta fasad. Se några av bilderna här och kontakta oss för mer information om den nästa ljusmålningevenemangen i Budapest! 2010-06-22T10:02:40+00:00 Donau Folk Ensemble (grundades 1957) är en av de mest populära professionella dansgrupper i Ungern.

Vill du veta hur de ungerska byarna ser ut jämfört med Budapests ”metropol”?  Planerar du en kort cykeltur någonstans utanför Budapest? Eller funderar du på att gå på en flodkryssning på Donau men du har redan sett huvudstaden ur ”vattnet”? Gillar du de lilla art caféer eller bara har lust att äta en marsipantårta? Om svaret är ja till någon av dessa frågor, då har vi lösningen för dig: Szentendre! Szentendre ligger ca. 2 mil från Budapest, på den västliga sidan av Donaun. Staden har bevarat sin enhetliga stadsbild från 1700- 1800-talet. Den lilla ortens dragningskraft beror på det vackra läget, närheten till Donau, arkitekturen och de historiska minnesmärkena. I årtionden har konstnärer, målare och skulptörer flyttat hit, verkat i konstnärskolonier och inspirerats av atmosfären i staden. Det är en stad som älskar och skämmer bort sina besökare med en mängd underbara vyer. Här finns också Ungerns första och största friluftsmuseum, Skanzen, som visar det gamla bondesamhällets liv. Man når Szentendre med kollektivtrafik (pendeltåg från Batthyany ter, Budapest), buss eller med bil, men den verkliga upplevelsen är antingen att besöka byn med båt eller att cykla till Szentendre (det finns trygg, utbyggd cykelväg längs hela vägen upp dit, på platt terräng).
