– 30/11

During The Hague Contemporary Art Weekend Ádám ALBERT had an Open Studio.

Ádám is in The Hague as part of the 1646 and Budapest Galéria residency exchange programme. Through this programme we aim to support innovative practices and foster global networks.

Being interested in the study of global trade and processes of cultural transfer, during his residency, Ádám will research the phenomenon of blue-and-white glazed porcelain and its journey through China, Japan, the Middle East, the Netherlands and Portugal. He will look at the appropriations and possible misunderstandings that lead to the adoption of this cultural pattern.
