Schaár Ezsébet Street

A star is the only source of inadequate communication. The attraction should have been open today, but it was completely closed. There was no information about it anywhere, so we went there unnecessarily. Very annoying. Please pay attention to this and always notify me if the opening hours are different from the official one!

Erzsébet Schaár wrote his main works in the 1960s and 1970s, which are summarized in Street, which can be seen here. Schaár was a singer and above his age in the cultural life that had been drained by the social and then more male-centric. In the architectural-scale space, doors and windows open to a state of life, one can walk a life path that is very difficult to get into this museum. Getting the key from a neighboring museum is a bit tricky (I've been here for the last time in 2018, and since then I don't know if it's been easier), but it's worth it for open-minded people.

Erzsébet Schaár's last great work is the "Street" - also the name of the museum itself, which can be seen in the Museum Street in Pécs (Káptalan u. 5.). The building was designed by István Janáky in 1985–86, in a postmodern style. In 1991, the work was placed in it, the more durable material of the composition, originally and temporarily made of styrofoam, exhibited first in Székesfehérvár in 1974 and then in Lucerne, Switzerland in '75. This summary of Erzsébet Schaár's art is a suggestive representation of the relationship between space and man, the correlation of space and time, which includes, among others, portraits of famous Hungarian artists (Lőrinc Szabó, Irma Patkós) and environmental works (Showcase, Mirror Room).

The exhibition presents an entire "street" with the facades of the buildings, residents, passers-by - on a lifelike scale. The visitor can actually feel part of the exhibition as in an “early, virtual reality”.
