New Wave Icons

Art+Text Budapest is pleased to present a selection of paintings by one of the witnesses of the Budapest underground, Tibor Sóskuti, a.k.a. SOSO, from the period between 1983-1986. The show is part of the gallery’s program that aims to rediscover Hungarian painting of the 80s.

The works by the artist who defected to Berlin are new wave icons never shown before. Balaton and Trabant, Marietta and Jenő, new wave and second public. Street art from the dreamlike streets of the hellish golden age, the counterculture of the 80s.
