On the 100th anniversary of the birth of Sándor Weöres an exhibition suitable for a travelling was set up by colleagues with the Museum of Literature that combines features of the traditional literary exhibitions with cutting-edge multimedia elements and interactive language games.

Creative games based on texts by Sándor Weöres have the visitors think actively and allow the reader to see more of the poet's poems. Poem patching, poem drawing, cross-stitch and idea blowing, 3D poem mapping, poem downloading by tapping,... and many other interesting tasks waiting for the play-loving audience.

Sándor Weöres spent his whole life with writing poems and experimentation with the musicality of language - sounds, rhythms, He was looking for the perfect shape, and used in a virtuoso manner the advantage provided by the Hungarian language. "So that my works can be used, not admired gaping" - wrote in his poem 'Greatness'. The formerly mentioned part of the exhibition corresponds to this wish, which was realized in collaboration with the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design Creative Technology Lab.

Weöres poet's ideal was a 'poet deprived of personality' who freed from the limitations of the era they live in has the ability to experience the world as a whole." Yet, we offer an insight at the traditional part of our exhibition into biography that fell outside of Weöres poetry, yet influenced its evolution. These topics arranged in thematic order will focus on Sándor Weöres correspondence. We show through testimonies and using quotes by him his family, his tutors, teacher, friends, literary life , history, political events and also religion The exhibition presents manuscripts related to Sándor Weöres, kept in the Museum of Literature Collection as well as related manuscripts, photos, books, works of art, as well as documents featured in partner institute's collections.
