SUMMARY:Roma Routes – Art\, Identity\, and Expression from Hungary
DESCRIPTION:Join us on 8 April to mark International Roma Day for Roma Routes\, an evening of photography\, film\, and contemporary art exploring the journeys that shape Roma identity. Bringing together documentary work from a collaborative project in Tiszavasvári\, Hungary\, and artistic reflections by London-based Roma artist Robert Czibi\, the exhibition traces connections between place\, memory\, and belonging. Through images\, stories\, and personal perspectives\, Roma Routes invites audiences to reflect on how identity is shaped between the places we come from and the places we continue to become.\n\nThis exhibition brings together two intertwined narratives: the story of a segregated Roma community in Tiszavasvári\, and that of an artist born in another Roma neighbourhood in the same region who has carried its memory across borders.\n\nThe first story is that of collaboration: stepping across internal borders between the countryside and the Hungarian capital\, Budapest\, to involve participants from the Roma neighbourhood of a small town in the North-East of Hungary in a collaborative writing project with local non-Roma residents through the publication of the periodical Duj Dzséne – Ketten – Two Together.\n\nThe second story is of the artist\, Robert Czibi who crossed internal borders of identity and the physical borders of countries on many occasions before finding his expressive voice in the multiplicity of London’s lingua-culture. The simultaneity of identity as rootedness in Roma origins and identity as motion and interaction with our surroundings is what unites the two narratives that unfold in the images exhibited together.\n\n\nThe Road Ahead\nDocumentary and Photography Projects from Hungary – Film and photography\n\nThis photo exhibition was created in collaboration between photojournalist Márton Kállai\, multiple-winner of the Hungarian Press Photo Competition\, and the Tiszavasvári Roma Girls’ Youth Club\, on the initiative of the KRE Linguistic Diversity and Social Participation research group at Károli Gáspár University in Budapest. Together\, Roma and non-Roma participants from Tiszavasvári and Budapest write and publish the journal Duj Dzséne – Ketten – Two Together\, creating a narrative of trust and belonging about Roma futures and the coexistence of Roma and non-Roma in Hungary. The documentary film Duj Dzséne – Ketten – Two Together: Stories of a collaborative journal in support of Roma social participation showcases stages from their journey together: how they forged a collaborative writing and research collective across the borders of identity that separate people living alongside each other.\n\n\n\n\nThere I Was Born\, Here I Become\nContemporary Art\n\nRobert Czibi’s artistic response unfolds as a parallel journey alongside the documentary and the photos. Although Robert’s works reflect his individual journey as a London-based Roma artist from Hungary\, his journey explores the potentialities that open up when collectives or individuals persistently criss-cross and interrogate physical and narrative borders of identity. Through his works\, he returns to the landscapes of his childhood not only to remember\, but to understand how identity is formed between the place of birth and the place of becoming. Through images\, he explores what it means to grow up in a Roma family\, to leave it behind\, and to continue carrying its imprint in his works. Together\, his artworks create a dialogue between here and there\, between collective memory and personal transformation.\n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n 	18:30 – Film screening (25 minutes)\n 	19:00 – Panel discussion – The Road Ahead – Documentary and Photography Projects from Hungary\n 	19:30 – There I Was Born\, Here I Become – Private view\n 	21:00 – End of Event\n\n\n\n\nWe warmly invite audiences to join us for an evening of photography\, film and contemporary art marking International Roma Day. Through documentary images\, collaborative storytelling and personal artistic reflection\, Roma Routes opens a space to engage with questions of identity\, belonging\, and the journeys that shape Roma lives across places and generations.\n\nThe exhibition offers an opportunity to encounter the voices and perspectives behind these projects and to reflect on how communities and individuals navigate the paths between heritage\, memory and new beginnings.\n\nRegistration is open via Eventbrite.\n\nThe event is supported by the National Research\, Development and Innovation Office – Hungary and organised by the Liszt Institute London

SUMMARY:Biophilia - An exhibition by photo artist Balázs Csizik and neuroscientist Dániel Barabási
DESCRIPTION:Liszt Institute London presents Biophilia\, a one-of-a-kind exhibit featuring the thought-provoking combination of the works of neuroscientist Dániel Barabási and photo artist Balázs Csizik. \nThe exhibition is organised around the concept of life and its different dimensions\, as the duo combines the tools of science and fine art to present the central theme through a variety of media\, from cellular organisation to networks of urban spaces and communities. \nJoin us for the opening on Wednesday\, 12 November\, 6.00 – 8.00 pm. \nThe exhibition will be on view for the public from 13 November 2025 – 16 January 2026\, Mondays-Fridays 11.00 am – 7.00 pm. \nPreviously presented in New York\, Brussels\, and Stuttgart\, we are excited to welcome the exhibition to London in November 2025. \n\n\nThe concept of life and its various definitions have largely determined the scientific and cultural discourses of the 20th and 21st centuries. Traditionally\, when we speak of life\, we think primarily of human existence\, and we interpret the life of other forms of existence in relation to this. The concept of life has carried this duality since antiquity. In ancient Greek thought\, two concepts with different meanings were used to denote life: zoé\, which refers to mere life\, natural existence\, organic forms of existence\, the self-organizing processes of nature\, the self-maintaining biological processes of the body\, while bios refers to life organized in form\, political and communal existence\, self-conscious action\, ethics\, and moral laws. The tension between nature and culture\, between non-human and human existence\, can be detected in the divergence between the two concepts. In the intersection of the modifications of meaning or even the vitality of these categories\, we find the notion of life in constant change and in constant need of investigation. \nThe joint exhibition of Dániel Barabási and Balázs Csizik synthesizes the different dimensions of the interpretation and observation of life. Barabási is a neuroscientist who studies the cellular organization and developmental processes of living systems\, the human body\, and the brain. As a visual artist\, Csizik works primarily in photography\, capturing and manipulating natural\, urban\, and social phenomena using a specific formal language based on the aesthetics of constructivism. In Biophilia\, Barabási’s works organize and transform cells into abstract artistic compositional elements\, while Csizik’s restrained formal compositions involve sprawling organisms. Reflecting on each other\, inspired by each other’s methods\, the two artists explore the different forms of life and the connections between them. They use the exhibition space as an aesthetic laboratory\, a place for exploring the intersections between science and visual art\, urbanism\, sociology\, environmental science\, biology\, and an experimental mix of different approaches. In their joint work\, different concepts and forms of life make sense in a complementary and mutually reinforcing way. \nZsófia Máté\, curator

SUMMARY:The Dervish Bowl: The Many Lives of Arminius Vambéry Book launch with Anabel Loyd
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the London launch of The Dervish Bowl: The Many Lives of Arminius Vambéry by Anabel Loyd. This new biography paints a compelling portrait of one of the most enigmatic figures of the nineteenth century\, whose restless travels and self-fashioned legends made him both a celebrated explorer and a controversial character. \nArminius Vambéry (1832–1913) was a Hungarian-born linguist\, orientalist adventurer\, writer\, and member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences who rose from poverty to become a regular guest at the courts and parlours of Victorian England. Disguised as a dervish\, he crossed Persia and Central Asia on foot\, publishing tales that thrilled European audiences and earned him a reputation as an intrepid traveller. His story is far from straightforward: Zionist sympathiser\, inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Van Helsing\, and even a British agent in the “Great Game” with Russia\, Vambéry embodied the shifting identities and ambiguities of Europe’s imperial century. \nIn her book\, Anabel Loyd draws on Vambéry’s own memoirs alongside newly uncovered sources\, letters\, and contemporary accounts to reveal the complex reality behind the myths. From hero to trickster\, patriot to opportunist\, he emerges as a man who was always both insider and outsider – fitting in everywhere and nowhere at once.

SUMMARY:Sense of Calm guided tour - With artist Laura Medcalf
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided tour of Laura Medcalf’s solo exhibition SENSE OF CALM on the 17th October at 3.00 pm. As the solo show reaches its final days\, this event will provide one last chance to interact with Medcalf’s meditative works and to learn more about her practice firsthand.\n\nCoinciding with Frieze week\, this guided tour will serve as the finissage of our third exhibition\, SENSE OF CALM\, with special insight and engagement from the artist herself.\n\nAmid the movement and energy of Trafalgar Square\, SENSE OF CALM offers a moment to pause\, a space to step away from the city’s fast pace and into something slower\, elemental\, and immersive. In this solo exhibition\, British-Hungarian multidisciplinary artist Laura Medcalf transforms the Liszt Institute London’s gallery into a space of stillness and presence\, shaped by open waters\, soil\, and sunlight.\n\nThe exhibition explores how art can become more than an object of observation\, a space for stillness and inner calm. Built from organic elements\, the works establish a delicate balance between the rhythms of nature and human perception\, offering an opportunity for reflection\, renewal\, and a deeper connection with ourselves and the world around us.\n\nIn a world that rarely slows down\, SENSE OF CALM invites viewers to pause. To listen. To feel the flow. To follow the traces of light. To look beyond the surface\, towards the quiet\, invisible forces that shape us all.\n\nIn collaboration with Art Embassy Network.
