Este rar sa ai astazi pe strada ta ceva care sa nu
aiba un scop comercial si sa nu incerce sa iti vanda
ceva sau sa te forteze sa cumperi ceva. De data asta
nu avem nimic de cumparat ci mai curand de
rascumparat. Lucrarile si interventiile de aici o sa
ne ajute sa rascumparam unul din locurile si spatiile
familiare uitate pe langa care trecem in fiecare zi.
Nu numai atat, dar ele ne vor oferi poate si punct de
vedere critic cu privire la ce se intampla in orasul
in care traim si care se transforma de pe o zi pe alta
cu sau fara voia noastra.
City Wall Gallery este in primul rand o galerie de
arta in spatiu liber. Este o galerie asezata intr-un
loc cheie dintre orasul de sus si orasul de jos. Zidul
de beton unde o sa fie amplasate cele doua panouri
care se vor schimba din doua in doua saptamani leaga
acum aproape doua orase diferite intre ele. Este
important intr-un oras precum Sibiul sa existe cat mai
multe spatii de trecere. Spatii care sa fie cat mai
accesibile. Cel mai important este sa nu existe
restrictii pentru cei care locuiesc si traiesc in
acest oras.
Trebuie sa fim cat mai atenti ca in timp sa nu se
formeze niste borne invizibile si piedici care sa nu
lase decat turistul, investitorul sau diplomatul sa
stea sau sa treaca in voie. Cand un oras intra in
centrul atentiei el risca sa fie depopulat. Stim
cazuri in care locuitorii pleaca incetul cu incetul.
Exista un flux normal de oameni dintr-un oras in
altul, dar daca totul se scumpeste, daca totul este
orientat spre centru, incepi incet incet sa iti pierzi
locul chiar pe strada ta. In furia transformarilor
ajungi sa fi dezorientat in propriul tau oras.
Expozitii si artistii care se vor succeda pe cele doua
panouri ale acestei galerii. Amplasate in spatiul
liber ele vor marca si vor deschide o usa in zidul
acesta. O usa pentru ochii tuturor celor care vor
trece pe aceasta strada coborand sau urcand. Cand
locuiesti intr-un anume loc mai mult timp, incepi sa
treci pe langa el cu o anume indiferenta. Cu timpul
uiti ca exista acel loc. Nimic nu te mai surprinde
cand e acolo langa tine. Poate doar iti parchezi
masina acolo sau te opresti sa te odihnesti. Surpriza
intervine atunci cand iti dai seama ca din locul ala
poti ajunge si in alte locuri, ca poti calatori si te
poti intoarce pe alt drum acasa la tine. Ca te poti
gandi si la alte lucruri in timp ce mergi pe acolo.
Sandpapier, Cosmin Granidaru, Cristi Pogacean,
Sebastian Big, Alexandra Croitoru, Szilard Miklos,
Cristian Rusu si Johannes Grentzfurthner, toti acesti
artisti invitati au la dispozitie acum un zid cu doua
panouri unde o sa poata sa isi expuna lucrarile,
fiecare timp de doua saptamani.

rezultatele concursului Eurobarometru Vizual 2007

6 PROIECTE DISTINSE EX-AEQUO IN CADRUL PROIECTULUI EUROBAROMETRU VIZUAL ‘07

Cu ocazia vernisarii expozitiei „VECINATATEA – exercitiu cotidian al valorilor sociale” au fost anuntate proiectele castigatoare ale acestei editii a EUROBAROMETRULUI VIZUAL, proiect finantat de Uniunea Europeana, prin Fondul Europa 2006.

Dupa vizionarea celor 28 de proiecte vizuale realizate de artisti membrii juriului international: Teodor Graur (artist, curator Galeria HT003, Bucuresti, RO), Dimitri Konstantinidis (curator, directorul Asociatiei Apollonia, Strasbourg, FR), Mihai Oroveanu (curator, director general MNAC, Bucuresti, RO), Daniel Sotiaux (curator, seful Delegatiei Walonia Bruxelles in Romania, B), Agnieszka Wolodzko (curator Laznia Center for Contemporary Art, Gdansk, PL) au decis sa acorde 6 distinctii ex-equo in valoare de 500 de euro fiecare urmatoarelor proiecte:

· AMBASADORII VECINATATII – autor Alina Bondrea, Cluj (serie foto, 12 printuri digitale 33 x 50 cm, 2007). Iconuri definitorii ale vecinatatii “Ambasadorii” sunt obiecte sau produse care se imprumuta neconditionat si se returneaza in termen scurt.
· B 07 ROU – autor Emanuel Borcescu, Bucuresti (instalatie – proiectie video, DVD, 2’ 16 “; slideshow foto CD, 2007). Lucrarea ironizeaza primitivitatea modului obsesiv de marcare a spatiilor de parcare, absurdul situatiei si ambiguitatea in perceptia spatiului public.
· VECINATATEA CA INTRECERE – autor Diana Duta, Bucuresti (instalatie – serie 12 foto A6, animatie digitala, DVD, 32”, 2007). Artista realizeaza prin animatie o ilustrare a fenomenului contemporan de intrecere intre vecini in a-si demonstra bunastarea.
· DE CINCI ORI BUCURESTI – autor Olivia Mihaltianu, Bucuresti (video pe 3 canale, DVD, 20’, 2007). Filmul surprinde cinci tipuri de relationare la spatiul orasului prin intermediul a cinci personaje ce ilustraza ipostaze reprezentative ale societatii urbane contemporane.
· PERETELE – autor Bogdan Rata, Bucuresti si Baia Mare, (instalatie – perete 200 x 200 x 20, obiecte diverse, 2007). Lucrarea pune in discutie diferentele de educatie, de preocupari si interese pe care uniformizarea fortata impusa prin structura insasi a locuintei colective nu le poate sterge.
· EVACUAREA FANTOMEI – autor Studiobasar (Alex Axinte, Cristi Borcan) Bucuresti (Instalatie – 4 printuri digitale 90 x 90; macheta 90 x 45 x 25; 2007). Studiobasar propune o campanie de comunicare capabila sa atraga atentia in mod corespunzator asupra situatiei familiilor evacuate din locuintele nationalizate, restituite proprietarilor. Prezentarea, foarte amplu documentata, atrage atentia asupra nevoii de implicare si participare in problemele vecinatatii.

Expozitia este deschisa in perioada 27.06 – 8.07. 2007 / MNAC Galeria Etaj ¾ Teatrul National, Bd. N. Balcescu nr.2.

launching of VECTOR magazine, 3rd issue

Friday, June 29, h 19
Vector Gallery (Iasi, Cuza Voda 41, 1st floor)
launching of "Vector - art and culture in context" magazine with the participation of the editors Matei Bejenaru, Catalin Gheorghe and Cristian Nae

Vector magazine is a contributor for "documenta 12 magazine" which is developing its project in Kassel organizing lunch lectures, presentations and workshops between june 16 - september 23.

In September 10 - 16, the editors of Vector magazine are invited to participate in a series of lunch lectures on the theme of generating public sphere, together with editors from "De Witte Raaf", "Site", "Metropolis M", "Art-ist", "Piktogram", "Ojeblikket" and "Revista de Crítica Cultural" magazines.

3rd issue:
Vector - art and culture in context proposes in the opening a new series of presentations of art institutions activating in South East Europe and Middle East, the conception of an Western institutional initiative which is questioning the knowledge exchange between contexts and the first project realized in Iasi in the frame of Backyard Residencies program.
The second contribution of Vector magazine to the documenta 12 magazine editorial project is answering the question "What is Bare Life (Subjectification)?" both by a theoretical text about the resistance through small corruption in communist Romania and by a series of artistic projects proposed by invited artists and curators, talking about the photographic practice as simultaneously integrated and opposed to the practices of identity administration, about life taken on one's own as an artistic project, about hiding in plain sight the politically simplified aggression and about the creative reaction to the neoliberal scenarios.
The section assigned to the recent art theory and criticism approaches the "institutional critique" issue in a range of case studies about the situation of the production and inter-mediation of contemporary art in Bulgaria, Ukraine and Romania.
Other sections discuss situations of alternative everyday lifestyles, of commitments in tactical media or certain arguments about the organization of a film festival.

Saddo and Other la Streetwise

28 iunie – 15 iulie 2007

vernisaj: 28 iunie, ora 20.00

Other spune ca este “un nomad nascut in Canada”, care face parte din marea familie a street art-ului mondial. A inceput sa faca graffiti in anii ’90, in contextul miscarii graffiti “hiphop” din America de Nord. Cu timpul si-a definit practica, desenand pe trenuri de marfa forme hibride de graffiti si “hobo art” - desene pe care calatorii si muncitorii le faceau pe trenuri inca din 1850. In timp ce lucrarile sale calatoresc pe sine din Canada pana in Mexic, artistul “merge din tara in tara si lasa mici parti din el in toata lumea - urme de aerosol, vopsea acrilica, markere si chiar creta… orice lasa urme…”

Saddo a terminat grafica la Facultatea de arte din Cluj insa numai dupa ce a terminat studiile a redescoperit “bucuria de a desena exact ce am eu chef ca si atunci cand eram copil, la Sovata si imi petreceam toata ziua desenand intr-un caiet”. Saddo deseneaza monstri, “monstri urati, cateodata monstri dragutzi si colorati, depinde”. Lui Saddo ii place mai mult decat orice sa deseneze – “mi-ar placea cel mai mult din lume sa pot sa desenez doar, sa nu mai fiu nevoit sa fac alte chestii. Si imi place sa desenez impreuna cu alti oameni”. A si facut-o cu mai multe ocazii impreuna cu colectivul The Playground din Cluj si in ultima vreme cu Other care pentru Saddo este “unul din artistii mei preferati, inca dinainte sa il cunosc”.

Alexandru Paul vaneaza intimitati. Sau mai precis le fotografiaza. Mi-a fost intodeauna clar ca unul din motivele principale pentru care facem fotografii e incercarea utopica de a surprinde momentul acela de caldura personala care ne scapa tot timpul. Prietena mea, atunci cind se simtea foarte bine, dorea sa faca o fotografie. Incerca sa arhiveze. Intimitatea vine tot timpul si cu o latura narcisica. Te simti bine si vrei ca prin fotografie lucrul acesta sa fie stiut si de ceilalti. Intimitate si narcisism, astea sunt subiectele zilei. Sandu merge cu proiectul de fata intitulat Exhibition pana la limita minimalismului fotografic: compune doar premisele fotografiei, restul se produce de la sine. E un experiment interesant care spune ceva despre felul cum viata imita arta sau despre modul cum autorul e prezent totusi prin simpla intentionalitate si prin insusi actul expunerii.

Multumesc pentru ziua asta minunata / Thanks for a Wonderful, Ordinary Day
Curator: Oana Tanase

27 iunie – 2 septembrie 2007

vernisaj: miercuri 27 iunie, 19h00
............ ......... ......... ......... ......... ..

Fie ca este vorba de film, fotografie, text ori demers editorial, Stefan Constantinescu investigheaza felul in care experienta si memoria sunt mediate cultural. Pentru el, ambele domenii sunt in chip simultan construite si traite, deopotriva incarcate de dorinta, speranta si teama. Preocupat de istoria recenta, de politica evidentei si a absentei, perspectiva pe care si-o asuma artistul este una dubla: vorbind despre ceilalti, el livreaza totodata o discreta versiune autobiografica. Reflexivitatea este aici nu doar o solutie interna a documentarului ci si un imperativ etic.

Stefan Constantinescu (n.1968, Bucuresti / stabilit in Suedia din 1993) a absolvit studiile Academiei Regale de Arta din Stockholm in 1997. Activitatea lui include expozitii personale si de grup, precum si proiectii de film in Germania, Italia, Danemarca, Lituania, Elvetia, Suedia si Romania.

Lucrari prezentate in expozitie: Arhiva Durerii (instalatie video si carte, 2000); Just what is it… (serie foto, 2001); Baronul, 22.02.2002 (film, 2002); Dacia 1300, generatia mea (film si carte, 2003); El Pasaje (film, 2005); Lumina Nordului (serie foto si text, 2006); Building your Dacia 1300 (obiect, 2007)

Romanian Pavillion at 52nd Venice Biennale 2007

LOW-BUDGET MONUMENTS
The Romanian Pavilion the 52nd International
Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale
Artists: Victor MAN, Cristi POGACEAN,
Mona VATAMANU & Florin TUDOR

Curator of the exhibition: Mihnea MIRCAN

Opening 8th June, 7 pm, Giardini di Castello
Exhibition: June 10th – November 21st


The exhibition in the Romanian Pavilion at the 52nd International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale proposes a reflection on the possibilities and conditions of the contemporary monument.

Can the monument be detached from glorification or commemoration, from the rhetorical overload that burdens the history of the practice, and remain a monument? Can the monument be reprogrammed as an artistic instrument that does not serve to illustrate doubtful victories, resonant sacrifices or abruptly terminated debates, and, if so, what other fundamental operation should be assigned to it? Can the monument incorporate social and political antagonism into a matrix other than the separation between winners and losers in history or politics, one that allows for the continuous recalibration of social forces? Are monuments for terrorism or law, globalization or locality, democracy or secrecy, liberalism or communism conceivable? What losses, gaps, traumas and reconfigured social relations deserve monumental sites of public negotiation, that would help activate open contention and work to defuse adversity?

Modes of public artistic action that perform a plural, contradictory function – this could be conceived as the foundation upon which the long-term monument can be built. Whether we advocate complicated monuments for complicated social facts, whose singularity derives from their enactment of conflictual consensus, of new forms of social coherence, of strategies meant to integrate what society ignores, forgets or excludes, monuments that link center and margin, that permanently irritate the nerves of the social body, polemic monuments mapping inevitably plural purposes and actions, tensions rather than epiphanies, monuments that behave ideologically inasmuch as they invent new, dynamic totalities, and muster ‘another army of metaphors, metonyms and mythology’ as an adversary for ideologies, we inscribe process in monuments – process either made visible or instigated.

The works in the Romanian pavilion engage different readings of monumentality, surveying its interplays with notions of artistic subjectivity. Cristi Pogacean’s ironic Obelisk and his powerful rendition of a recent hostage crisis, where a group of Romanian journalists have been abducted in Iraq, Mona Vatamanu and Florin Tudor’s discussion of architecture in its dual processes of construction and destruction, of colonizing space and simultaneously making entropy visible, from the perspective of a performative monument, Victor Man’s treatment of the residues of nationalism inscribed on the façade of the pavilion and his ‘Monument to Victor Man’, intersecting the private space of confession and a phantasmal public space – all works propose modes of rethinking the public place or role of art. In different ways, they propose degrees-zero from which new monuments can be built, strategies of the monument based on the logic of counter-action.

The publication of the pavilion at the 52nd International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale groups theoretical and visual contributions as the first episode in a long-term project that aims to rethink the contemporary monument. It stems from the belief that monuments are ‘impossible necessities’ (Laurent Liefooghe), that, in their infernal difficulty, monuments are problematic knots entangling decisive questions about the modes of history and ideology that constitute or condition communities. The artistic, critical repossession of the monument could bring enlightening arguments in the discussion about the subversive capabilities of political art, perhaps actualizing Thomas Hirschhorn’s enigmatic dictum about ‘making art politically’, in a practice that does not evacuate the possibility of failure and does not dissimulate it in lesser ambitions and diminishing scale.

The publication is edited by Mihnea Mircan and Meta Haven: Design Research (Amsterdam). Contributors include Mark Jarzombek, Markus Miessen, Doryun Chong and Sean Snyder, Office (Kersten Geers and David van Severen), Alon Levin, Branimir Stojanovic, Laurent Liefooghe, Azra Aksamija, Calin Dan, Mechtild Widrich, Daniel Kurjakovic, Christoph Büchel and Giovanni Carmine, Wouter Davidts, Lieven de Boeck, Malkit Shoshan, LUST, Azra Aksamija, Zbynek Baladran and Emily Katrencik.

2 Cool 4 School e un program in care doua personalitati internationale ale industriilor creative sunt invitate la Bucuresti pentru a sustine prezentari in fata studentilor universitatii de arte si tuturor tinerilor creativi interesati. Pentru prima editie, Halta - Cohn & Jansen, UNAgaleria si 2020 i-au invitat la Bucuresti pe Kasia Korczak, graphic designer si Tristan Manco, autor de carti de graffiti si graphic designer. Cei doi impartasesc aceeasi pasiune pentru proiectele lor, atat personale, de artist sau autor de carti, cat si cele „comerciale”, de graphic designer si sunt invitati la Bucuresti pentru a-si prezenta lucrarile si pentru a realiza un workshop. 2 Cool 4 School este un proiect in care organizatorii isi propun sa incurajeze creativitatea in orice forma.

Kasia Korczak este interesata de design ca metoda de a produce si distribui continut si a fost in mod constant implicata in partea de publicatie a designului. Lucrarile ei au fost expuse la Design Museum si Barbican Gallery, Londra and Casco, Utrecht. Printre clientii s-au aflat si Colette, Nike si L’Oréal. In 2004 a infiintat "Korczak si fiicele", studio care produce lucrari de moda, design si arta cu o atitudine polemica particulara. Lucrarile ei au fost publicate in 032c, Eye, Creative Review, Diplo, +81, printre altele. In prezent isi imparte timpul intre Londra si o rezidenta de master la Werkplaats Typografie in Arnhem.

Tristan Manco traieste si lucreaza in Bristol, unde in 2002 a infiintat Tijuana Deisgn, de care s-a despartit in 2006 pentru a continua freelance. A lucrat pentru clienti importanti precum Elle, BBC si EMI Music. A publicat articole in Creative Review si Modart si este autor al cartilor Stencil Graffiti (2002), Street Logos (2004) si Street Sketchbook (in curs de aparitie) si co-autor al cartii Graffiti Brasil (2005), toate la Thames and Hudson. A editat Graffiti World (2004), aparuta la aceeasi editura.

Mihai Iepure Gorski la Galeria Andreiana Mihail

Galeria Andreiana Mihail
va invita joi, 31 mai ora 19.00
la vernisajul expozitiei

"Ramanem peste noapte" (o retrospectiva).

Artist: Mihai Iepure Gorski



„N-am mai vazut un tanar artist al carui debut expozitional intr-o galerie comerciala sa fie mai plin de entuziasm decat cel al lui Mihai Iepure Gorski la Galeria Andreiana Mihail, debut intitulat "Ramanem peste noapte" (o retrospectiva). O urma de vanitate (in sfarsit) satisfacuta traverseaza orice artist la debut. Nu e cazul insa pentru Mihai, care, departe de a invoca maturitatea si abilitatile atistice, isi celebreaza debutul si conditia de tanar artist in acest show. Daca, in mod uzual, tema oricarei expozitii de acest fel e exterioara ideii de "inceput", idee luata drept implicita si lipsita de interes critic, iata ca Mihai Iepure Gorski isi intoarce ochiul analitic chiar catre actul propriului debut: I can't wait. I just can't wait. I'm so glad to be around... (John Lennon, Man of the Decade interview, British Television broadcast on ATV in December 1969) spune artistul citandu-l pe John Lennon, in momentul singurei fotografii din show. Si desi Mihai mi-a spus personal asta, vazind fotografia simt in ea intelesul cuvintelor lui Lennon alimentand o bucurie atat de candidia incat pare a fi un fake. Textul zgariat pe peretii galeriei anihileaza suspiciunea, si Bruce Nauman devine o categorie utila unui comentariu coroziv la mecanismele raportului galerie - artist iar conceptul motor al expozitiei traverseaza pana si cadrul cu iz suicid din video-ul Untitled. Atractia vidului, aplecarea peste margine, aproape o perversiune, e cifrul angoasei caracteristice binomului artist - industrie artistica, asa cum un baiat cu chibrituri, cea mai sensibila si criptica lucrare din "Ramanem peste noapte" (o retrospectiva) este conceptual reductibila la insusi titlul expozitiei. Un concept inedit, cu o implementare permeabila si o strategie artistica abila - asta va propune Galeria Andreiana Mihail prin expozitia lui Mihai Iepure Gorski.”

Noaptea Galeriilor

ARTA FACE O NOAPTE ALBĂ
Bucureşti
26 & 27 mai, 19:00 – 04:00


Noaptea albă a galeriilor bucureştene se consumă între 26 şi 27 mai 2007, în intervalul 19:00 – 04:00. Născută din necesitatea de a conecta în reţea cele mai dinamice şi efervescente spaţii de prezentare şi promovare a artei contemporane, fie ele galerii publice ori private, ideea “aduce la un loc” proiecte ale unor tineri artişti bucureşteni şi nu numai.

Galeriile de artă sunt mici laboratoare, puncte vii pe harta oraşului, capabile să genereze prin discursul lor evenimente ce nu pot fi ignorate în societatea contemporană. Un astfel de tur de forţă cultural, ce poate prilejui inedite întâlniri între artişti, lucrări şi public favorizează o privire de ansamblu asupra artei contemporane româneşti şi a rolului galeriilor în conturarea unui nou layer urban.

Exploratorii nopţii albe a galeriilor vor descoperi sofisticate lucrări şi instalaţii site-specific selecţionate de un juriu alcătuit din Aurora Kiraly (curator Galeria Nouă), Alexandra Croitoru (artist, asistent al Universităţii de Arte din Bucureşti), Ştefan Tiron (curator independent şi teoretician) şi Raymond Bobar (editor al publicaţiei Republik).
Comunitatea virtuală a proiectului poate fi consultată la adresa: www.noaptea-galeriilor.blogspot.com.

Proiecte semnate de: Ovidiu Feneş, Alina Popa, Irina Gheorghe, Mihuţ Năiţă, Marina Albu, Dan Pintea, Szilard Miklos, George Drîmbău, Sebastian Big, Ciprian Dicu, Ana Blidaru, Anca Benera, Olivia Mihălţeanu, Alex Ciubotaru şi grupul Peer to Peer, plus expoziţia colectivă Ne placă ce faci. Skateboard Art.
Spaţii de desfăşurare: Galeria Andreiana Mihail, Galeria Nouă, HT003, UNAgaleria, Galeria Posibilă, Galeria HAG, Galeria H’art, ArCub, Galeria 26/OTA, Galeria Streetwise, Librăria Cărtureşti, Galeria de Artă Digitală 115.
