Blood Mountain Foundation →

The mission of Blood Mountain Foundation (BMF) is to generate fresh ideas and to encourage the production of new art sensitive to its location in Budapest and to Hungary’s broader socio-political context as a new member state of the European Union. Central to BMF’s objective is the belief that
art is an agent for social change and its open discourse and unrestricted practice are fundamental to the life of a participatory democracy. BMF is the Hungarian component of an international exchange programme supporting contemporary visual culture and the discourse of intelligent thought about art, history, contemporary life and all things engrossing and challenging at a grass-roots level. Its aim is to attract creative thinking and production to Hungary and similarly, to promote local talent to the broader international arts community through an ambitious programme of artists’ residencies, exhibitions and events, publications and special projects.
