Surprising light and unusual perspectives – the shots by Eva Besnyö (1910-2003) are fascinating. She acquired her technical tools of the trade in the Budapest studio of József Pésci. In the early 1930s, Berlin opened her eyes to the aesthetic of modern photography. Finally, in Amsterdam, she became a master photographer, even before she succeeded in making a new start in the 1950s following persecution as a Jew and survival in hiding. The KKMK is showing more than 80 original prints.
