GRAMATIK OF FEAR

@University of Arts, Bucharest (str. GriviÈei nr. 28)

Free entrance.

A panel discussion on how fear and it's component parts combine to
form with GergÅ HorvÃth (curator of BB6), Adrian Dan (artist), Erwin
Wurm (artist), JÃnos SugÃr (artist), Filip Gilissen (artist), Jan
Kaila (artist, professor at Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinky), Carlos
Aires (artist), Liviana Dan (interimary director of MNAC).. Moderated
by RÄzvan Ion & Eugen RÄdescu (professors at University of
Bucharest).

As archaic use of fear was defined as a mixed feeling of dread and
reverence. Dread is today defined as great fear or apprehension.
Reverence as deep respect for someone or something. There is a paradox
in mainstream Christianity, for example, which is presented as a
religion of love, but which alienates with its dogmas and backs up
fears of the temporal world with threats of Hellfire to come. It is
tyrannies not democracies which thrive on the politics of fear. At the
same time tyrannies does not mean also violence. Means very respectful
fear. A fear which you believe is good because will protect you from
evil. Fear has a stronger biochemical component than some other
emotions, and there is little to be done by reason if really strong
fear takes hold.

The participants will explore the double meaning of the word
apprehension, the fear or anxiety that something bad might happen and
in the sense of comprehension. 

13.00 - 19.00

Exhibition will be open for press and professionals

APPREHENSION. UNDERSTANDING THROUGH FEAR OF UNDERSTANDING

The exhibition will explore the double meaning of the word
apprehension, the fear or anxiety that something bad might happen and
in the sense of comprehension. The relation between the two needs a
closer look. How fear is developed and maintained throughout our lives
and how it can become a tool for learning and understanding. How it is
administered and maintained socially, politically, how it affects the
development of our ideology and how we can learn from it. The time is
now to reassess and to raise some questions about certain aspects of
everyday life that might have gone unnoticed. (Extras from the
curatorial text by GergÅ HorvÃth)

ABOUT BUCHAREST BIENNALE

BUCHAREST BIENNALE promotes awareness and dissemination of the
culture, particularly in the fields of the arts, by means of exchanges
and cultural cooperation within Europe and beyond and is looking for
strategies that would develop mutual understanding and offer insights
from different perspectives.

We assume the urge of a dialogue with the public, of a platform for
artists as much as the need of reinventing new forms of artistic
expression and encourage curators to make a large selection of artists
who would represent best the European unity in diversity.

BB aims to resolve the twofold problems of tradition and modernity,
past and present, localism and global village, it strives to attain a
balanced status between its aesthetic/artistic quality and popularity
by overcoming the feeling of estrangement that the general public has
towards the contemporary arts.

BB is building a strong partnership between Bucharest â which is
more than a city, it is a symbol of how political can be reflected in
every aspect of life â and the Western Europe; it links to an
universal problem â that does not take into consideration the
geographical or historical context â the problem of resistance in
daily life, of details and living as a way of living. BB is a
structure able to transform the City itself into an ongoing
workshop-cum-field of action.

Today, BUCHAREST BIENNALE is the only contemporary art biennial in
Central and East Europe.
