Due to last year's great interest we are organizing an ikebana workshop again this year with award-winning ikebana artist Judit Várhelyi. Ikebana (the traditional Japanese art of flower arrangement) shares its roots with tea culture, garden design and calligraphy, and is imbued with the principles of Japanese aesthetics. More ❯❯❯

The teahouse is a real refuge from the world outside, thanks to its simplicity and its absence of base materials. There, and there alone, one can finally devote oneself to the undisturbed admiration of beauty. More ❯❯❯

The workshops introduce the audience to an instrument of the Baul Fakir musicians of West Bengal. The mystical songs of the Bauls, with Hindu or Muslim themes, are known east of Calcutta and even in Bangladesh. This 'one-man band' represents spirituality, divine revelation and detachment from everyday life in village communities, i.e. the Baul singer connects the Earth with the sky in the eyes of the community.

To continue our tradition, for the spring contemporary art exhibition and fair this year we picked an unusual motive. This time the main motive is not a plant associated with Hopp Museum's garden, but the dragon, the fifth animal of the zodiac, which plays a significant role in Chinese mythology. This unusual choice links our programme with the Chinese Year of the Dragon. More ❯❯❯
