About Rogues Gallery

Rogues Gallery is a portrait gallery, arts salon and creative studio in Budapest’s notorious District VIII, established by actor, writer and illustrator Scott Alexander Young. The gallery was founded to give creative ideas a physical home in an increasingly digital world.

Part exhibition space, part reading library and part working studio, Rogues Gallery hosts occasional exhibitions by artists whose work meshes with its rogue spirit. The ever-changing work permanently on display is the proprietor's own Cocktail Napkin Art.

For visitors who relish quiet contemplation, the László Egyed Reading Library offers a curated collection devoted to Picasso, modern art and the great traditions of European painting.

Arrivals & Departures

The gallery’s first season included exhibitions by portrait photographer Victoria Perger, Budapest-based Romanian artist Ela Daple, and American painter Frederick Haddox.

The next chapter places greater emphasis on Scott’s own illustration work, including the ongoing Nem Csak Magyar series, and The Actor’s Cookbook. Future events will include salon evenings, guest exhibitions - and the odd surprise or two. One thing is for sure: we certainly know how to open a show.
