Soimii Satrei la Galeria de Arta Contemporana a Muzeului National Brukenthal

January 28, 2010   Valentin   1 Comment

Conceptul de cultura alternativa s-a conturat in anii ’50 pe strazile londoneze, cand renumitii Teddies impuneau un nou comportament urban prin vestimentatie, muzica si atitudinea fata de societate. Astazi, cultura alternativa reprezinta o reactie la confuzia institutionala, necesara, vie si nelimitata estetic. *Street-art*-ul, o parte esentiala a culturii alternative, s-a transformat intr-o abordare ultra-democratica a spatiului urban; este folosita pentru a aduce aproape de cetateni si public probleme stringente ale societatii actuale, pentru a explica intr-un alt limbaj, mai actual si mai lipsit de constrangeri, viata interna a unui oras sau a unei comunitati.

“What’s Street Art Doing in a Museum?” – 29 ianuarie – 14 februarie 2010 – Vernisaj: vineri, 29 ianuarie/13.30 – Galeria de Arta Contemporana a Muzeului National Brukenthal, (Str. Tribunei, nr. 6, Sibiu)

“Soimii Satrei”, o grupare de “street-artists” s-a mutat in urma cu putin timp la Sibiu. Ei planuiesc sa revitalizeze locuri abandonate sau lipsite de identitate din oras, in colaborare cu Galeria de Arta Contemporana a Muzeului National Brukenthal si Primaria Municipiului Sibiu.

Ca impuls si tema de discutie, Soimii Satrei au intervenit direct pe unul dintre peretii interiori ai galeriei, realizand o replica supradimensionata a unei lucrari din colectia Brukenthal – “Masacrul inocentilor”, apartinand lui Pieter Bruegel I. Personajele si situatiile din lucrarea originala au fost inlocuite cu fiinte mitologice sau extraterestre cu atitudini
hippie-punk, care recompun originile lumii, interogheaza probleme nerezolvate ale istoriei sau refac traiectoria unor simboluri.

Pavilion #14: Biopolitics, Necropolitics and De-Coloniality

January 28, 2010   Valentin   No comments

Pavilion “I am interested in rethinking conceptually, politically and ideologically the conditions of the re/production of life, art and culture in the social and political space in the present moment of neoliberal global capitalism. Capitalism is not just a framework “out there somewhere.” It is the condition sine qua non of the way we live and of how life is conceptualized today. It is also the basic condition of the way in which the social and political layers of society function. Last but not least, it is at the basis of the way in which each and every institution of contemporary capitalist society is organized and functions today. When I say “institution,” I mean both its material foundation and its “non-material” discourses. Institutions today comprise innumerable social practices, their theoretical conceptualization and practical organizations.” (extras from “From Biopolitics to Necropolitics and the Institution of Contemporary Art” by Marina Grzinic)

Generation ’89

January 27, 2010   Valentin   No comments

Generation '89 Proiectul “Generation ‘89″ isi propune sa aniverseze caderea sistemelor totalitare din Europa oferindu-le celor nascuti in anul 1989 o platforma de comunicare. Acesti tineri din 9 state europene – Austria, Belgia, Bulgaria, Cehia, Germania, Marea Britanie, Polonia, Romania, Ungaria – vor avea ocazia sa vorbeasca atat despre experientele trecute, cat si despre asteptarile pe care le au ca actuali cetateni ai Uniunii Europene. Participantii selectati de juriile nationale vor participa intre 25 si 28 aprilie 2010 la intalnirile simultane din Bucuresti, Bruxelles, Praga si Varsovia. Cu un trecut national diferit in legatura cu anul nasterii lor, 1989, si avand experiente si evolutii distincte din perspectiva cetateniei europene, tinerii implicati in proiect isi vor imagina viitorul lor si viitorul Uniunii Europene intr-o declaratie comuna pe care o vor redacta in timpul intalnirilor internationale. O delegatie a lor va prezenta Declaratia „Generation ’89” reprezentantilor Uniunii Europene la Bruxelles, pe 7 iunie 2010.

Alex Mirutziu “Some kill their love when they are young”

January 27, 2010   Valentin   1 Comment

Alex Mirutzu

Alex Mirutziu was born in Sibiu, Romania, in 1981. He studied at the art academies of Cluj-Napoca (Romania), Cuenca (Spain) and Huddersfield (UK). Today he lives and works in London and Cluj-Napoca. For his video piece Tears are precious Alex Mirutziu received the Best Independent Artist Award at the Optica International Video Art Festival in 2008 (Paris, Madrid). Alex Mirutziu’s œuvre includes photographic self-portraits, live performance, sculpture, painting and media-critical video installations.

“My work traverses processes that refer to the body when it is at war with itself; addresses issues of self-familiarisatio n, mediation, and interaction, framed via social processes and ephemeral emergence. I never forget that I use revolution wise instruments embedded with political meaning and transversal power; my body is one of those instruments – my own disposal container where I am comfortable in stepping in and on my own obscenity, and ambiguity, as self destructive volume, as public duration of images, processual, exercising freedom in complex environments.
I intend to make use of the processes of the body almost to a level of rape, to generate distinctions and to create meaning when introduced into new systems of relations. Therefore I deliberately take my own body as the main place of confrontation and communication with my own memory and suffering. I have always learned through disappearances, through leavings and comings-to-be, never conceptualising restrictions – always acting upon them. My work is a shared provocation of corruptive language, comes into view as exploitative act of how death has structured us, as I sing for the war of heartbreak where every bit of myself is a tool, a weapon.” (extract from: HOT MESS/ Contemplating the body at war with itself – Some brief remarks on my own mess, by Alex Mirutziu)

In his first solo exhibition in Germany at the Rüdiger Schöttle Gallery Alex Mirutziu will be showing new works under the title “Some kill their love when they are young”, a reference to Oscar Wilde’s poem “The Ballade of Reading Gaol”.

Invitati: Alexandru Ciubotariu (aka Ciubi aka Pisica Patrata) si Cristian Rusu
Moderator: Istvan Szakats, Fundatia AltArt

Dupa o istorie de peste 30 ani in lume si un articol in dictionar, dupa galerii, bienale si publicatii, street art si-a marcat teritoriul si in Romania. Lucrari, nume, trenduri si valori s-au materializat si au devenit recognoscibile. Au aparut semnaturi pe ziduri. intalnirea organizata de AltArt va porni de la exemple si marturii ale invitatilor pentru a discuta despre arta in spatiu public, mesajele continute de street art, provocarile situarii artei intr-un context social si va incerca sa defineasca arta de pe strazile din Romania.

organizator: Fundatia AltArt
locatie: Fabrica de Pensule, Str Henri Barbusse no 59-61, Sala Studio, et I
Proiect finantat de Guvernele Islandei, Principatului Liechtenstein si Norvegiei prin Mecanismul Financiar al Spa?iului Economic European.
