The beaten track is a metaphor for habit — for cultural and perceptual conditioning that confines the world to an orderly system of recognizable forms. Beyond it lies a departure from that order: a transgression of the boundaries of perception, knowledge, and meaning, and an exploration of side roads, blind spots, and unfamiliar spaces. The international group exhibition Access Is Off the Beaten Track seeks pathways into these realms. The works on display open up spaces and experiences where our perception of reality becomes unsettled, and certainty is replaced by the strangeness hidden within the familiar.
Decay, the instability of the body and of matter itself, and the sensing of hidden or invisible forces in art are symptomatic expressions of a broader collective destabilization — one that touches the subject, identity, the environment, and our very sense of reality. Today, aesthetic experiences serve less as metaphors for an uncanny, unresolved past and more as reflections of an unsettled perception of the present. The exhibition aims to chart this contemporary restlessness and the mental and physical spaces shaped by absence, tension, and fragmentation.
Curators: Zsófia Máté, Patrik Steinhauser
