Varfok Gallery — Attraction in Budapest

Nice small gallery space with frequently changing exhibitions. The staff is really nice and explains a bit abut what's on, in English. The gallery also has a show room across the street with another small exhibition. The lady offered to take me there—it has to be opened with a key, it's unstaffed—which was really nice.
