Visitors to the exhibition first see works by István Csók, who incorporated elements of Hungarian folklore into his paintings. Paintings by József Rippl-Rónai, a predecessor to the Hungarian Fauves, follow. Among the other artists whose works are represented in the exhibition are Róbert Berény, Béla Czóbel, Csaba Vilmos Perlrott and Sándor Ziffer.
The exhibition travelled from the Musée d'Art Moderne in Céret, and it will move to the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Dijon in the spring. The exhibition can be seen at the Musée Matisse until February 22.
The French publisher Adam Biró has put out a new French language catalogue of the exhibition which has so far sold an impressive 6,000 copies. The catalogue will soon go into its second printing.
