Kader Attia joins a Ludwig Museum discussion on 20 November

The English-language afternoon, without interpretation, explores repair; Timea Junghaus will respond through Hungarian and regional contexts.

Budapest's Ludwig Museum will hold a professional afternoon with Kader Attia on 20 November, from 16:00 to 19:00, according to its programme. An important participation condition for Hungarian audiences is that the discussion will be in English, without interpretation.

The artist's presentation will be followed by a response from Timea Junghaus and audience questions. The official ticket page lists a full-price programme ticket at HUF 3,300; readers should check the available ticket type and final amount payable there before purchasing. We report information about the announced event and make no claim of attendance or critical first-hand experience.

Attia curated the 12th Berlin Biennale in 2022. Its institutional introduction traces his thinking from repairing objects and physical injuries to individual and societal traumas. This provides context for why repair in the Budapest event's title extends beyond simply mending objects.

From an editorial perspective, the event is noteworthy for opening artistic concepts to public discussion: audience questions form part of the planned afternoon. The museum's family map-making programme offers another form of participation, while photography readers can find our René Maltête exhibition report. The next concrete date is the start on 20 November; any programme changes can be followed on the museum's official website.
