Viktor Lois is an outsider, yet a key figure of the 1970's, 80’s and 90’s Hungarian avant-garde. Part of the Szentendre scene along with Bizottság members, contributor of Béla Tarr movies, recently he played at László Krasznahorkai’s book presentation in New York. His signature kinetic sound sculpture mechanics were presented in 1993 at the Biennale di Venezia, but he rarely plays on them in front of the audience. Living in the United States for two decades now, Viktor Lois will present a live performance on one of his sonic sculptures at the opening event of UH Fest 2026.
