| Next Event in June: Long Night of the Galleries/ 12-13th of June |
|
| What’s here to find this night? Three films not so often available to the public, at least not to the gallery’s public, Bob’s your uncle by Nicu Ilfoveanu and Michelle Bressan, screened recently at Brukenthal Museum in Sibiu, and invited this year at TIFF, Matei Bejenaru’s A.S.B.T, produced for Lille 3000 project and presented in France in March, and Felicia says, by Răzvan and Irina Botea, exhibited at KulturKontakt Viena last year, apart from that some elder syrup and some pudding, some surprises, as well as a pile of artist books and publications (the last 10 copies of Garbage Pit, for instance).
About the gallery there’s lot to say, so I am waiting for you to hear them all! |

| Matei Bejenaru - photography exhibition at Galeria Cupola in Iasi |
| Galeria Cupola in Iasi hosted from the 21th to the 27th of May Matei Bejenaru's photo exhibition M3 - work, memory, movement*. The project, begun in 2008 and consisting of large format photographs of workers portrayed in their working environment, was previously exhibited in Galeria Futura in Prague. |
"Work is no longer a topic for nowadays. We all work in a complex system where the only thing that matters is the utility of the goods we produce. The utility is dictated by the market, and not by our identity as homo faber. The alienation on our faces is progressively transferred to the technological space we depopulate, in a migration process towards the territory of excessive and redundant consumption. Matei Bejenaru records, in fixed frames, the flow of total anonymity. The negative is the memory of the industrial age, the exterior memory of alienated bodies - biological, social and political bodies. The record of an invisible flow - the memory - through work. Matei Bejenaru begins another emancipation project: M3 - work, memory, movement*."
Constantin Vica
*in Romanian, work, memory and movement all begin with the same letter: M; this is where the title M3 comes from. |

| In May - Nicu Ilfoveanu at VoxBox and Long Night of Museums |
| Nicu Ilfoveanu participated with a new work in the VoxBox exhibition, which took place from the 18th to the 21st of May at Crosspoint/ Plymouth in the UK. Six international artists worked inspired by the same audio fragment, recorded in a secret location in Plymouth. The installation proposed by Nicu Ilfoveanu was the result of the collaboration with the sculptor Vlad Gherghiceanu, just like the intervention for the Long Night of Museums at the Literature Museum in Bucharest on the 16th of May.
|
| The stake of the Plymouth exhibition was to "spark discussions about the way we make art, where autonomy fits in, and the role of technology in the process, be it paintbrush, computer or rear end. By remediating the same audio source, each artist brings to the project their own histories, experiences and realities – journeying in their own particular way towards the final artwork." The installation built by Nicu Ilfoveanu and Vlad Gherghiceanu contains within itself the tautology of the 60s conceptual art: paraphrasing Robert Morris it is the "The Holy Grail with the image of its own making".
The intervention at the Literature Museum is collaborative as well, a common experience has led to two different ways of approaching the book as an object and as a symbol, that's why the chosen exhibition space allows parasite infiltration.
