The exhibition presents, for the first time, a comprehensive overview of the hitherto little-known work of Transylvanian photojournalist, journalist, and savior of archives Lajos Erdélyi. It evokes the raw reality of Ceaușescu’s Romania through the lens of an artist who managed to document his time with an autonomous vision—even within the confines of official mandates.
