KOGART will start lecture series tied to exhibitions at the KOGART House or focusing on a single period in art history from March. The lectures, presented by the KOGART Education Centre, located in a refurbished school building next to the KOGART House, are accredited by Hungarian colleges and universities.
The KOGART Education Centre will start two lecture series in its first semester, one entitled Lajos Gulácsy and Art at the Turn of the 20th Century, which is connected to the current Gulácsy exhibition at KOGART House, and the other, entitled Raphael, Leonardo, Michelangelo, which is timed to coincide with Hungary's Renaissance Year and examines the works of Donatello, Botticelli, Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, Brunelleschi, Piero della Francesca, Mantegna, Titian, Tintoretto and Veronese.

KOGART was founded by Gábor Kovács in 2004 to organise contemporary art exhibitions, build a collection of important 21st century art and foster contact between artists and their audience. The KOGART House, located in a renovated villa on Budapest's historic Andrássy Street, also serves as a home for Kovács's private collection of Hungarian masterworks.
