Ethnonymic
An ethnonym () is a name applied to a given ethnic group.

Biography László Magyar was born on November 13, 1818 in Szombathely, Hungary, and lived 17 years in Ponte de Cuio, Angola, where he died on November 9, 1864.

Magyar spent over a decade living among the native people and learning their languages. In 1848 the Hungarian ascended the Congo river to the Yellala Falls, before spending five years expl ...

Adam Magyar
Adam Magyar (born 1972) is a photographer and video artist. Life and work Adam Magyar was born in Hungary in 1972. He began taking pictures in his late twenties, when he started wandering Asian cities capturing their street life in images of Indian street vendors, wandering holy men, and students in an exclusive Himalayan school. Obsessed with finding innovative new uses for digital technology, Magyar's work quickly evolved from conventional documentary photography to the radically experimental and surreal.

In his attempt to comprehend the interface of time's infinite flow in the world's modern metropolises, he has developed techniques to capture, on a single visual plane, disjointed, fragmented images of parts of an individual or group on a crowded street. A theme that recurs throughout much of his body of work is based on interlinking yet distinct ideas and techniques that aid us to see the inhere ...
