Autumn 2020: it’s lockdown and I am going on my first artistic residency It’s in Zalau, a town of less than 50K in North-Western Romania. My plan in this residency was to look without expectations and enjoy time in a greener, breathier place than Bucharest. And, if I could, make people rethink their relationship to...

The Oneiric Realism of Contemporary Moldovan Photography | for ARTA Magazine

Posted by Raluca Turcanasu on January 25, 2021 6:43 pm / 0 Comments

Magical realism with a shot of sadness, to go. This is how I’d characterize the aesthetic of contemporary Moldovan photography, by reducing it to its essence. I find a sort of dreamlike realism browsing through the series of Mikhail Kalarashan, Maria Guțu, or Ramin Mazur. It’s a dream in which sadness and joy converge and...

Texturile lui scoby

Posted by Raluca Turcanasu on January 3, 2021 9:07 pm / 0 Comments

Uneori îmi place să mă autosurprind, să-mi faci mici surprize „culegând” ceva „banal” care-mi iese-n cale. Ceva care să mă scoată din zona de confort. Dar doar puțin. Așa am învățat să fac curry, la un Centre d’animation in 13eme, Paris. Așa a ajuns și Scoby la mine acasă, de la Ari și de la Oana....

Cabana Învățătorului. Cabana Pionierilor. Tabăra Meseș.

Posted by Raluca Turcanasu on December 3, 2020 9:41 pm / 0 Comments

Spectre ale trecutului neînțeles bântuie Europa. Trei nume care reflectă istoria acestui loc, azi o ruină gata să se dărâme pe cei care au îndrăzneala (iresponsabilitatea) de a intra. Eu nu m-am putut abține. Și, de cum am ajuns acolo, am avut senzația că locul e bântuit foarte potrivit pentru un film horror. Poate asta...

O zi la Bad Schimläi, un orășel imaginar

Posted by Raluca Turcanasu on November 26, 2020 1:42 am / 0 Comments

Dacă Șimleu Silvaniei era un mic orășel din Germania s-ar fi numit, probabil, Bad Schimläi. Fix cu o zi înainte de intrarea în carantină a Zalăului am făcut o mică excursie în orășelul Șimleu Silvaniei, situat pe râul Crasna, tot în Sălaj. Ghici de unde mi-a venit similitudinea cu un orășel german de cum am...

Jurnal de la Zalău

Posted by Raluca Turcanasu on October 31, 2020 11:05 pm / 0 Comments

Lumea arde și baba se piaptănă. Cam ăsta e my underlying feeling în prima mea rezidență artistică, de la Muzeul Județean de Istorie și Artă Zalău. Pentru că am învățat de mică să înșir cuvinte coerent, am fost una dintre artistele acceptate în rezidență la Zalău (alături de Sofia Nelega) și asta mă face mega...

Exactly today, one year ago, me and Vlad were in Paris, visiting Wim Wenders’s (E)Motion cinematic architectural installation in the nef of the Grand Palais.
