Wamp: Where Art Meets People
What does the abbreviation WAMP stand for? We are often asked this question. In Hungarian the abbreviation stands for Sunday Design Market, in English for Where Art Meets People. Both sum up what the WAMP is for us: a platform for designers and artists from the fields of fashion, accessories, jewellery, home decor and photography, which makes it possible to make works accessible to a wide audience. The WAMP is also a meeting place for creatives, representatives of all generations and members of the art industry. A lively, open exchange takes place at the markets. Design lovers, family and friends and, of course, dogs are welcome at the event.

Andy Warhol – After the Party
Who are we when the party is over, when we no longer try to impress others, when we dare to be vulnerable and be seen? After The Party shows a different Andy Warhol, one who longs for belonging and captures this longing with his camera. Each photo tells of his longing for closeness to fellow revellers, lovers and confidants. His intimate photographs invite us to empathise with his longing.

Exactly as Imagined
We – a temporary collective of art students, artists and cultural workers – explore the art exhibition as a place of collective articulation of difference(s) and resistance as well as a place of interconnectedness and interdependence within and without. Exactly as Imagined is the result of a process rather than working towards a curated outcome. It is a collective proposal that includes an intervention in public space, an exhibition and ongoing care work.
