Overview

Berlin-based artist Gusztáv Hámos, who emigrated from Hungary in 1979, explores the nexus of media and reality in his film and video works. Exploring the significance of myths and heroes in popular culture, Hámos constructs ironic, idiosyncratic fictions that quote sources from classical Greece to Hollywood, Snow White to comic book superheroes, science fiction to film noir thrillers.
