Dóra Maurer, a Hungarian conceptual artist whose output in multiple mediums explored how meaning shifts across time and space, has died at 88. The Art Newspaper reported that the Széchenyi Academy of Literature and Arts, where Maurer served as president, confirmed her passing.

Maurer was one of the most important contemporary artists in Hungary. She is today best known for her works produced in the country while it was still under Soviet rule. Many of those famous works were produced in the 1970s, during a period when Maurer was producing photography and films that primarily featured the artist and her collaborators performing banal acts.
