This exhibition explores the mutual influence of Hungarian popular music and visual art: iconic artworks, typical positions, important and influential scenes. Popular music, as well as popular culture in general, has brought to life new genres and techniques (covers, posters, music videos, etc.), which have opened up new media for visual arts. The underground music of the 70s and 80s is inseparable from the visual arts of the period. The exhibition focuses on the gateways between these two parallel worlds, life structures that were generated as a result of these interactions, but are obsolete today.
