At the vernissage, Syrian artist Saad al Ghefari and Hungarian comedian Tamas Vamos will also share stand-up comedy with the audience.
The discussion will be thematically linked to the exhibition and integrated into the opening. Together with artists and experts from the fields of art, culture, education and science, a panel will consider whether and how artistic creation functions as a linguistic means of expression and can contribute to communication and integration in social settings characterised by diversity and heterogeneity.
