00:00 Meet Sándor Kereki, the Hungarian photographer who takes you back to the streets of Budapest
00:07 in the 1970s.
00:09 Given a camera by his father at the age of 16, he spent the next 10 years wandering the
00:15 streets of the city where he captured everyday moments.
00:18 "When you walk down the street, you find something interesting.
00:22 When I go home and open the door, I find out that it is not interesting.
00:27 There is nothing special about it.
00:30 There is no plan in it.
00:33 The only plan is that I tried not to interfere."
00:37 Kereki's completed piece consists of 7,000 exposed negatives.
00:42 Each of the photograph on display is intriguing, evokes memories and in few occasions some
00:48 have recognized themselves or a relative.
00:50 "I have not been able to do this much more, looking at the other pictures.
00:55 I was lucky, the lighting was good.
00:59 I ran into it.
01:01 I found it and I was very lucky to find it.
01:04 It happened on the street, but you don't see it every day."
01:08 In 2021, 1,800 images were uploaded to a digital photo website named FortPan.
01:16 In some cases, they are still available to view in the archive.
01:19 It is open until February 4th.
