Gherasim Luca și depășirea suprarealismului

„Poezia fără limbă, revoluția fără persoane, iubirea fără sfârșit” (Gherasim Luca, înscris pe „Cuba Colectiva” Havana, 1967) Gherasim Luca este inventatorul unui limbaj poetic și, în același timp program existențial, inseparabil de opera sa. Adesea s-a vorbit de ontopoezie, pentru că pentru Luca poezia, arta și viața au fost una, au format un tot inseparabil. A...

Les Douches La Galerie is currently hosting a  Vivian Maier Exhibition “The Color Works”, which also includes many black & white photographs. Of course, her work is great but the exhibition concept is quite simplistic, the work is not at all contextualised and it’s presented a bit cramped. It all has an air of a desire...

I often accumulate vast amounts of content waiting for me to process it, to bring it out in an orderly manner, ideally accompanied by a profound, well-researched text. Well, this time I figured the exhibition of Basquiat does not deserve such an absurd treatment. I feel I’d be doing you, however is reading this, as...

I met Eva & Marta Yarza at the D&AD Awards in London, 2018, where they also won a Wooden Pencil with their cool Smirnoff campaign. I interviewed them and really enjoyed their optimistic and super hard working, applied mindset. Keep up the awesome GAL POWEH!!! I prepared the following material for the IAA Global Conference...

In image theory studies we often talk about “what do images want?”, about a secret life of an image, about how a detail can overturn an entire painting or how the punctum grabs our gaze and arrests it, binds it to a certain “je ne sais quoi” of the image. Such phenomenological and image theories fascinate...

Contextualizare? În tranziție, nomazi digitali, fără domiciliu fix, globe trotteri, pasageri. În sens larg, metafizic, toți suntem trecători prin viață, prin locuri, prin situații și tot în trecere mă aflu și eu la Paris, cu o bursă Erasmus la Paris Diderot. Întorcându-ne către cotidian, acest lucru îmi oferă un domiciliu fix, în sens administrativ și...

Nadya Zhexembayeva, super empowering business woman with a warm presence, was one of the keynote speakears at TEDxBucharest 2018. I talked to her on few of the concepts she developed with her team. Read below or watch the interview at the end of the article. Nadya developed the „Overfished Ocean Strategy” and I was curious...

David Mattin is the Global Head of Trends and Insights at TrendWatching, a company that follows the evolution of trends in business, innovation and consumption. We talked about consumerism, technology and interconnectedness after David’s speech at TEDxBucharest, the 10th edition (2018). I wanted to understand how the current mindsets and new technologies will impact the way...

Sunt minciună din cap până-n picioare. Pe 13 și 14 decembrie Karamazovii se joacă la Teatrul Mic. Este una dintre punerile în scenă dificile și realizate cu succes, din punctul meu de vedere, de către Nona Ciobanu și echipa ei și eu zic să ne bucurăm de prețurile prietenoase pe care le avem la teatru...

‘ve just visited the Berlinische Galerie, especially for the FREEDOM: THE ART OF THE NOVEMBER GROUP 1918-1935 Exhibition and I really must say it is very well curated and it portrays a vivid and in depth (yet succinct) scenary of the Berlin avangardes of the time.  I will do my best to re-curate it here...
