PROGRAMME:

6 p.m. – 2 a.m.
Bem aka Matild dj set on Ludwig Museum terrace
Colonel Bem is preparing for Museums’ Night with a genuine, museum/art-environment-taylored exotic vinyl mix. The word ’museum’ does not only reflect the actual age of the vinyl records, but also their value and their rarity. Nu jazz as well as its precursors and wildings are playing the main role tonight. – A sort of "easy to enjoy" music flavoured with spicy winking humour.

4 – 5 p.m.
Barbara Schoblocher & Gábor Jancsó acoustic concert in the exhibition Passion. Fan Behaviour and Art

SKUBI „guided tour” starting at HÉV terminus on Boráros tér, proceeding along the river bank to Ludwig Museum
Do Skubi and delight in other people’s memories with the Danube – at the riverside. Outcomes of four workshops conducted for children, adults and artists at Ludwig Museum, works visualizing participants’ most memorable experiences related to the river will be put on display with the help of Valyo designed peepholes, called Skubi. These strange boxes stand apart from their environment, but when peeping into them, one can see a personal world of bathing, love or any other memories related to the Danube. For the last five years, Valyo has formed a close association with the Danube and Skubi will give a chance to local citizens to create their own river inspired art pieces displayed at the Danube side. The project is part of CAPP (Collaborative Arts Partnership Programme) and relates to Julius Popp’s Bit.Fall piece that will be built in Ludwig Museum.
