Kántor István is a neoist artist, a performer, who is known across the world, and also is disreputable, AKA Monty Cantsin. This autumn he is visiting Hungary on occasion of his first large-scale oeuvre exhibition. The material to be shown at our museum consists of installations, videos and performances. Permanent dynamism, changes and intensive coexistence of these characterise Kántor's art. From the high technology of 'junk-art', robotic works, to graffiti -like works, techno-pop music, noise making, invention, action art and mail-art, Kántor has tried everything and has been working in revolutionary fervour.
In addition to some videos from Kántor's archives, the body of the works we show has been there in the storage of the Székesfehérvár Museum for a decade. Kántor's early works and some he did during his visits, as well as some he did during visiting others' exhibitions make up the body of the show.
The concept for the exhibition does not imitate the original form of the works, and does not try to provide a chronological review either. Instead, we intend to show Kántor's art in a re-mixed fashion. Kántor is a performance artist: his videos, installations, posters and pictures are all imprints, imprints of a kind of anti-art.
Kántor left Hungary in 1976, he now lives in Toronto. He is the founder of Neoism. He has lived in Budapest, Paris, Montreal, London, New York and Berlin. Recently, Kántor was involved in discovering Asia, he also showed in Japan, Thailand, Indonesia and Singapore. His tour in Poland was unpredictably successful, especially among young people.
