Áron Lődi (b.1996, HU) is a visual artist working across a wide range of disciplines from sculpture, installation, and image-making to publishing and curatorial collaborations. Concerned with contemporary narratives of resistance, capitalogenic crises, and the legacy of the Eastern Bloc, his work embraces the coalescence of horror stories and emancipatory possibilities.
He currently lives and works in The Hague. He graduated with an MFA from the Dirty Art Department at Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam. He is a founding member of the Budapest-based U&K Magazine publishing project and part of the artist duo ALAGYA (w/ Szilvia Bolla). In 2022, he initiated a para-academic program and lecture series titled Contaminating The Soil That Nurtures Greed, focusing on "Second World" artistic strategies. He is a co-curator of the Metaforum conference, produced by the Institute of Network Cultures, Amsterdam. His works were exhibited internationally at A Promise of Kneropy, Bratislava; Vunu Gallery, Kosice; Loods6, Amsterdam; Modem Centre for Modern and Contemporary Arts, Debrecen; Studio Hanniball, Berlin; 1111 Gallery, Budapest; and Galerie Rudolfinum, Prague. In 2023, he was a fellow at Akademie Schloss Solitude, Stuttgart. In 2024, he received the Klára-Herczeg Award together with Szilvia Bolla from the Studio of the Young Artists' Association, Budapest.
