[Nettime-ro] Expozitia "SWITCHED OVER" la VICTORIA ART CENTER


*Switched Over*



23 octombrie â 2 noiembrie 2013

Vernisaj: miercuri 23 octombrie, 19.00



Victoria Art Center, Calea Victoriei 12C





Ãn cheie heideggerianÄ se poate susÅine cÄ moartea presupune atÃt un
eveniment, singurul eveniment de neocolit pentru fiecare dintre noi, cÃt Åi
o condiÅie a individului uman. Acceptarea acestei condiÅii, asumarea mai
generalÄ a *finitudinii *umane, devine astfel punct de plecare pentru
valorizarea fiecÄrei clipe trÄite. Timpul capÄtÄ valenÅa calitÄÅii, a
intensitÄÅii.

Ãntrebarea pe care Åi-o pune proiectul de faÅÄ este dacÄ arta poate
Ãndeplini rolul de *switch* existenÅial, de declanÅator al nevoii de
autenticitate, Ãn ciuda tendinÅei unei epoci consumiste de a livra iluzia
cotidianÄ a unei existenÅe perpetue, Ãn care omul are posibilitatea de
indefinitÄ amÃnare a deciziilor de viaÅÄ esenÅiale, a alegerilor
fundamentale, a confruntÄrii cu valorile, cu reperele culturale.



*Artisti*: Ètefan Bandalac, Daniel Djamo, Daniel GhercÄ, Adad Hannah, Peter
Jacobi, Iosif KirÃly, Petru Lucaci, Andrei Mateescu, George Marinciu, Paula
OneÈ, Beniamin Popescu, Lea Rasovszky, Andrei Tudoran.



*Echipa curatorialÄ*: Iosif KirÃly, Raluca Oancea Nestor, Raluca Ionescu,
CÄtÄlin Gheorghe, Petru Lucaci, Marius TÄnÄsescu.



ExpoziÅia se desfÄÅoarÄ Ãn cadrul proiectului cultural ARTÄ. CONSUM.
FINITUDINE (ACOFIN), *finanÈat de AdministraÈia Fondului Cultural NaÈional
(AFCN) *Åi derulat de Universitatea NaÅionalÄ de Arte din BucureÅti Ãn
parteneriat cu Universitatea de Arte George Enescu IaÅi, AsociaÅia
Doctoranzilor Åi CercetÄtorilor Ãn Filosofie Èi  Victoria Art Center.




Proiectul ARTA.CONSUM. FINITUDINE (http://acofin.wordpress.com) a presupus
Ãn mai-noiembrie 2013 derularea de conferinÅe si ateliere
interdisciplinare, cu participarea unor artiÅti vizuali, filosofi
consacraÅi Åi medici specialiÅti. Scopul acestora a fost trezirea
interesului tinerilor artisti si teoreticieni asupra spectrului larg de
probleme implicate de condiÅia finitudinii umane. ÃncepÃnd cu luna
octombrie 2013 va avea loc o serie de expoziÅii Ãn IaÅi Åi BucureÅti, serie
deschisÄ de evenimentul de la Victoria Art Center, Åi se va lansa un DVD cu
lucrÄrile artiÅtilor participanÅi la proiect.





*Switched Over*



October 23rd â November 2nd 2013

Opening: Wednesday 23 October, 19h00

Victoria Art Center, Calea Victoriei 12C





In one of Heidegger's key senses of the term, death describes an event, the
only inescapable event for each one of us, as well as a prerequisite of
human condition. The acceptance of this precondition, the general
assumption of manâs finitude thus becomes a starting point for the
valuation of every living moment. Time is enriched with the added value of
quality, of intensity.

This project is asking whether art can function as an existential switch to
turn on the need for authenticity despite our consumerist timeâs tendencies
to deliver the daily illusion of a perpetual existence during which man has
the possibility to indefinitely postpone essential life decisions and
fundamental choices and never confront oneâs values and cultural landmarks.



Artists: Ètefan Bandalac, Daniel Djamo, Daniel GhercÄ, Adad Hannah, Peter
Jacobi, Iosif KirÃly, Petru Lucaci, Andrei Mateescu, George Marinciu, Paula
OneÈ, Beniamin Popescu, Lea Rasovszky, Andrei Tudoran.



Curatorial team: Iosif KirÃly, Raluca Oancea Nestor, Raluca Ionescu,
CÄtÄlin Gheorghe, Petru Lucaci, Marius TÄnÄsescu.



This exhibition is part of the cultural project ART. CONSUMPTION. FINITUDE
which is kindly supported by the National Cultural Fund
Administration (AFCN) and developed by the Bucharest National University of
Arts in partnership with George Enescu University of Arts, The Association
of Doctoral Students and Researchers in Philosophy, and Victoria Art
Center.



Between May-November 2013, the cultural project ART.CONSUMPTION. FINITUDE (*
http://acofin.wordpress.com*) has generated conferences and
interdisciplinary workshops attended by visual artists, philosophers, and
medical doctors. The purpose of these events has been an awakening in the
interest of young artists and theorists on the wide array of issues around
the condition of manâs finitude. A series of art exhibitions, whose opening
act unfolds at Victoria Art Center, will take place in Iasi and Bucharest
from October 2013 and a DVD with the works of participating artists will be
edited.
