How did the poster artists and illustrators' Thesis Defence take place in 1952? What did a cadre page look like at the Academy of Fine Arts? What kind of jobs did graduates get after the completion of graphics collage in the 1950-1960s? Wall paper and paper card calendar - what's that? Why was the satirical periodical Ludas Matyi concerned with health? All together, what kind of newspaper was that? What roads led to artistic movie posters in the 1960s, which are considered pre-eminent Hungarian poster art creations? What is the difference between hand-drawn designs and printer's shop executed posters and brochures? These and many other questions are answered at next exhibition by the graphic cabinet.

Our exhibition selects by material offered by the widow of the graphic artist Antal Gunda Museum of Fine Arts - National Gallery graphic collection as well as the museum's own collection of Gunda works.

Antal Gunda (1929–2013) graduated from the Collage of Fine Arts in 1952. His typical posters reflecting the mood of the era and other applied graphic works are excellent examples of Hungarian graphic design in the 1950-1970. The works we have recently and other works we have by Gyula Gubda acquired represent stylistic changes in the field of advertising design of the era through picturesque realism, abstract depictions through photomontages and graphic sign system. The heritage preserved as a complete collection provides an exceptional opportunity to look into the creative process, art design conditions, jurying, a variety of graphic design, less spectacular details, resources for the artists' information and education.

However, the exhibition also shows how important role selfless gift of heirs play in the museum's acquisitions.
