I find thee with God, my brother! – Gypsy stories

The new temporary exhibition at the Museum of Ethnography titled " I FIND THEE WITH GOD, MY BROTHER! - G Y P S Y S T O R I E S " focuses on the photographs and lesser-explored manuscripts and tape recordings of the legendary researcher known as the "Blonde Gypsy," Kamill Erdős (1924–1962), who operated incognito within Roma communities. The exhibition is a true curiosity. It presents for the first time the results of Erdős’s simultaneously progressive and subjective research conducted among the Roma population in Hungary during the 20th century, preserved in the collection of the Erkel Ferenc Museum in Gyula. The exhibition also demonstrates how a seemingly concluded research can continue to live on. After over half a century, ethnographers from both museums managed to locate the surviving members of the former communities and honor the memory of those who have passed away.

Admission and a guided tour fee are required to participate in the programme.
