On Thursday, January 12th, 1646’s co-directors and curators Johan Gustavsson and Clara Pallí Monguilod will give a guided tour in the exhibition Crying until laughing at Trafó Gallery, Budapest.

For the occasion of the exhibition Crying until laughing/Sírás nevetésig, Trafó Gallery invited 1646 to curate a group exhibition in Budapest! The project showcases artists connected to 1646’s program, focusing on works that share similar artistic strategies, such as fictioning, complicating and the use of humour.

On Thursday, January 12th, curators Johan and Clara will take you through the exhibition, speaking of humour as the common thread throughout the exhibition while unfolding the presentation’s nuances and social potential to deal with our contemporaneity.

The tour lasts from 18:00 to 19:00. Following the guided tour, there will be a screening of Roee Rosen’s Kafka for Kids in Trafóclub. The screening will take place in English.
