INTERVIEWS BB6 – Bucharest Biennale
ArtGuideEast (AGE): Why did you initiate the Bucharest Biennale? BUCHAREST BIENNALE (BB6) – Bucharest International Biennial for Contemporary Art (founded in 2004) was just one step forward. The PAVILION journal generated BUCHAREST BIENNALE and consequently ended up representing its visual projection. Also, every two years the journal becomes the reader for the biennial’s theme. The Biennale is building a strong partnership between Bucharest – which is more than a city, it is a symbol of how the politics can be reflected in every aspect of life – and the rest of the world; it links up with a universal problem, one that does not take into consideration the geographic or historical context – the problem of resilience in everyday life, of details and feeling as a way of living. BB is a structure capable of transforming the City itself into an ongoing workshop-field of action. A transient structure generates another structure through the inconsistency of its passing. The result of this chain of causes might be a third action – the analysis of the representational strategies, outlined by the spectator’s interest. AGE: Where is it located? What are the venues?

interviews
BB6: For the above-mentioned reasons, BB makes use of 5–7 spaces in Bucharest in its attempt to discover the hidden geography of the city. This year the venues will be Pavilion – center for art, Combinatul Fondului Plastic (impossible to translate, it is a space belonging to the Artists Union, a very socialist building), The Political Institute, The Peasant Museum and some parallel events will be held in an old automotive factory, Faur. The locations of the Biennale are chosen in context with the concept of the event, in terms of relating the empirical sphere of the local reality with the conceptual approach. Each location is connected with the Romanian social-political reality, like The Peasant Museum, it is a national museum, in possession of a rich collection of objects, hosted in a Neo-Romanian style historical monument building, that was supposed to raise a “palace of autochthonous art” inspired by typical monastery interiors. Or The Institute of Political Research which was created in 3
1999, 10 years after the revolution, through the transformation of the Centre for Political Research, founded in 1995 as the research core of the Faculty of Political Science of The University of Bucharest. After 10 years from the institutionalization of research activity, the Institute remains one of few platforms of debate and analysis of the Romanian political environment from an academic perspective, through social and economic mediation. By intervening within the Institute of Political Research, BUCHAREST BIENNALE suggests and inserts new means of investigation, discussion and criticism of the socio-political context. AGE: Looking back at the history of Bucharest Biennale what would you highlight from its past? BB6: Actually, these days will be the 15th anniversary of our organization. There are lots of things. But we believe the most important was our educational programs and of course all of the instruments, the journal, the Centre and the Biennial. From the first ever printed issue of Pavilion magazine, in 2000 to the current edition of Bucharest Biennale, everything was important to us and our public, but the main responsibili-

ty that we had was education, and we try make to this aspect a primordial one in terms of developing more educational programs dedicated to our public. AGE: How do you evaluate your role in the CEE region? BB6: We are kind of unique in the CEE. And Bucharest Biennale is the only Biennial. Which of course means a lot and comes with a lot of responsibility. Nowadays, the spare time of the contemporary individual becomes an increasingly important reality and the mass-media revolution completely alters the way of reception/perception and participation in the cultural area. As a result of the mass-media expansion (i.e. means of mass communication), interference and intercultural communication have become almost simultaneous. The cultural act becomes an object of recreation, entertainment or personal development through leisure and this is an ubiquitous reality in contemporary society. It is claimed quite often that such a conception of culture would be expressed freely, as an abstract element, through unity-in-diversity, through universality-by-difference and this could not be truer.

Kálmán Makláry FIne Arts @ Art 14 London
AGE: How did you select the fairly young curator, Gergő Horváth (RO/HU) for BB6? BB6: We think the age of a curator could be important, but we do not believe so. It’s not a crucial aspect, but could be an advantage. Let’s remember the BB4 curator was appointed when he was 20. And was a very meaningful biennial. Same for the BB6 curator. We considered a series of curators which could mean something different for Bucharest. After that we discussed this with our international board and we came up with a proposal. AGE: What is the aim of the curatorial program ”Apprehension. Understanding through Fear of Understanding” ? BB6: That is a question for the curator, but we can quote him: “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.” AGE: What parallel events do you organize? BB6: There will be lectures, debates, small exhibitions and several others organized in cooperation with our institutional partners. We are happy to say most institutions of the art scene in Romania are somehow involved. We will have lectures series in our educational program and also some exhibitions organized by some galleries around the BB theme, and also events/debates in the context of new realities in Bucharest and Romania. For the 6th BUCHAREST BIENNALE (2014), a set of programs has been designed to engage student audiences with the exhibition. The programs include workshops, guided tours, kids days and youth days, to facilitate community engagement with contemporary arts. interviews
Kálmán Makláry, director courtesy of Kálmán Makláry Fine Arts Gallery
Kálmán Makláry Fine Arts is dedicated to the artists of the Post-War School of Paris. Especially the Abstract and Surrealist movements.Through its exhibitions and its publications of books and catalogs, it has worked towards reviving important artists. The gallery works with museums and art collectors and develops with them long-term relationships of trust. AGE asked Kálmán Makláry about their participation at ART14. AGE: Why is it important for you to participate at ART14 in London? Kálmán Makláry: London has a very important role in the global art scene, and ART14 London is filled very cleverly, at the right time and right place a possibility to evolve a new major art fair in the international art calendar. The organizers already made an outstanding name with their previous and successfull projects. Art 14 London seems the next one, which was indicated last year of the inaguration of the new fair. There was 5
a great number of collectors, truly international, and most of the galleries, including us, made very good business there, meeting numerous new collectors and possible new future clients. AGE: Who are you going to exhibit? Kálmán Makláry: The Kalman Maklary Fine Arts will exhibit its regular artists, such as Judit Reigl, Simon Hantai, Francois Fiedler, Victor Vasarely and some of the more contemporary artists of the gallery like Sam Havadtoy and the Korean Hur Kyung-Ae. AGE: On what grounds have you selected them? Kálmán Makláry: We do 5-6 fairs a year so we have a solid collector base. We have some collectors who are coming to London to see the new important works we put aside to show only in the London fair, and some for collectors who are already on the waiting list for Hur Kyung-Ae for example. We usually have museum quality works from some of our artist, which we only show for
certain art fairs. London is a new market for us, so we are preparing a very good selection, which will be only available at the Olympia Hall in 2014. AGE: What do you expect from the 2nd edition of the fair? Kálmán Makláry: I expect the same as last year, meeting more British collectors and museum curators in order to promote our artists. For Judit Reigl and Kyung-Ae we have more demand than available works so we are also very interested in finding perhaps some new emerging artists, which we can work with in the future.

Gallery Meno Parkas ‘s mission is to implement the creative program of Lithuanian Artists’ Association’: promotion of young artists, involving them into projects of contemporary art, international cultural exchanges and publishing art publications. Art Guide East asked curator Giedre Legotaite and director Arvydas Zalpys about their participation at Art14 London. Art Guide East (AGE): GEWhy is it important for you to participate at ART14 in London? Gallery Meno Parkas (GMP): We see the participation in ART14 fair as a great opportunity to make connections with galleries, artists, art critics and collectors. We are also willing to present Lithuanian contemporary art as it is still not very known or appreciated in international art scene. Taking part in international art fairs is also a reflection or evaluation of gallery’s work. AGE: Who are you going to exhibit?

Anna Nova Gallery St. Petersburg @ Art 14 St. Petersburg gallery Anna Nova, opened in 2005, nowadays is one of the leading Russian galleries working in the field of contemporary art. The gallery purposefully sets out to promote contemporary visual art, presenting and selling works of Russian and foreign artists of different art trends: from underground masters to the celebrities of modern art. ArtGuideEast asked Sasha Sizova gallery manager about their participation at Art14. AGE: Why is important for you to participate at ART14 in London? Sasha Shizova: It is important to participate at Art 14 because we find this global art event very interesting and important for future parthership with other galleries and collectors and of course to present russian contemporary art at the global art scene. AGE: What are you going to exhibit? 8
AGE: What do you expect from the 2nd edition of the fair? GMP:We expect good experiences, highlights of contemporary art, new connections and attention to our exposition. AGE: What programmes are you planning to attend? GMP: We will attend the performance programme (performance of gallery artist Ms. Zidrija Janusaite and her team will be presented there) and space projects programme (our artist Mr. Tadas Vosylius will present his installation MONOGAMA).Also we are interested in attending TALKS program and others programs as well.
Sasha Shizova: We are going to exhibite the following Russian contemporary artists: Partial losses by Alexander Dashevsky In this new project artist stays honest with himself and once chosen style – combining abstract painting and figurative one. For the exhibition in Anna Nova Dashevsky refused from complicated installations and objects in space. Instead of it artists changes the painting into a minimalistic sculpture. Depicted on the canvases ventilators, air-raid shelters and letter-boxes change into scattered structures with value, rhythm, place in space. And only next sight to the picture lets us see it full of scrappy information. The artist says that it is a picture (picture of the world) in the moment of it’s deconstruction. Desperate romantics by ULDUS The series Desperate romantics is about young Russian romantics and their imaginary and a bit infantile world, imbued with a strong illusion of their own importance. www.artguideeast.org

Medium-sized film becomes the analogue of a canvas, chosen as the best instrument of color depth rendering. The semantic component of the project is an interpretation of modern life as it is. Our gods are superheroes, our utopia is Americanized, we perceive beauty through comparison, death remains death, but it’s good only if it is extraordinary.

Quadro Gallery Cluj @ Art 14 London Quadro Gallery was founded in 2008, to address the need in Transylvania and in Cluj, for art galleries which operate commercially, but at the same time are guided by ’high’ artistic values. The gallery’s aim is to study, exhibit and re-evaluate works of art from Romania, with the emphasis on Transylvanian art. Although the high reputation of the Baia Mare School and of the artistic center of Cluj are quite well known, they are still under-represented internationally in museums and publications. In addition, there are still other several artistic centers to be discovered, as well as extraordinary individual artistic personalities. ArtGuideEast talked about the gallery’s participation at Art14 in London with Sebestyén György SZÉKELY director of Galeria Quadro. AGE: Why was important for you to participate at ART14 in London? Sebestyén György Székely: We always seek international exposure for artists and art we represent. AGE: Who did you exhibit? Sebestyén György Székely: An experimentalist artist – Laurenţiu Ruţă-Fulger (b. 1955) – and two young painters from Cluj – Alin Bozbiciu (b. 1989) and Radu Băieș (b.1988). AGE: On what grounds did you select them? Sebestyén György Székely:These artists belong to two different generations of Romanian art and also representing two different trends of Art: conceptualism/experimentalism and painting. As there was a good production of progressive art in Romania in 1960-1980 but it was rarely seen, I found important to sitematically recover and show it together with current works of those artists. It is the case of Laurentiu Ruta Fulger who did great experimental works and inventions (such as the Self-transformable Sphere, 1974) in the 70-80s and kept a conceptual approach towards his activity until today. We present some of the so-called phonograms, in which he caught the water on a photosensitive paper vibrated by sunds. I also like young painters who deal with pure
Laurentiu Ruta Foto-vibration 1986 water jet on photograhic paper 78,5 × 106,5 cm courtesy of Gallery Quadro painting as their main agenda, a conceptual approach which our gallery sustains. The painters who we represent were mostly born around the Romanian Revolution in 1989 thus they are not anymore so involved with historical, political or social issues as many of the painters of the previous generation. AGE: What did you expect from the 2nd edition of the fair? Sebestyén György Székely: It was our first time here. We had expected that the good quality painting we brought and historical works (photograms from the 1980s) would be well received. Anyway we were aware of the fact that it is a global art fair and is a big challenge to show Eastern European art. (We sold both photogram and painting. There was an enormous interest in the art we exhibited and received many enquiries. Even if Radu Băieș is still not very known internationally, we sold his A Wild Sheep Chase for 9.600 EUR.)

Ani Molnár Gallery Budapest @ The Armory Show
Ani Molnár and Dénes Farkas Courtesy: Ani Molnár Gallery This year marked the inaugural edition of Armory Presents on Pier 94, an expanded and re-branded take on Solo Projects, the section of the Armory formerly dedicated to single artist presentations exhibited by young galleries. The Ani Molnár Gallery was the only CEE exhibitor invited to the Armory Show this year and on this occasion ArtGuideEast asked Ani Molnár, the director of the Budapest based gallery to talk about their experience in New York City. ArtGuideEast (AGE): The Ani Molnár Gallery is the only CEE gallery this year and you are the first gallery from Budapest to exhibit at the Armory Show in New York, how do you evaluate this opportunity? Ani Molnár: Although I have participated in several prestigious international art fairs for the past years the Armory Show is an exceptional one. It was a great privilege to be there. New York becomes that week the center of the art market, and the Armory is the number one fair during that week. I have been working really hard to develop my gallery and establish its position in the international art scene, being selected for interviews
the Armory and other prime fairs I feel that these efforts have been acknowledged. In addition, it made me feel proud to represent Hungary and art from the CEE. I understood the great responsibility that it meant and I did my best to live up to the expectations. It was a great opportunity that I considered as a challenge. AGE: Who did you exhibit? Ani Molnár: I exhibited a solo show by Dénes Farkas. He is a highly talented young artist, who has already gained international reputation. Last year he represented Estonia with a large scale installation at the Venice Biennale entitled ‘Evident in Advance’. He had a great solo show in my gallery in December. I also showed him at Artisssima and Artmarket Budapest last year and at ARCOmadrid just before the Armory Show. He is currently having a solo show on view in KUMU Art Museum of Estonia. AGE: On what grounds did you select him? Ani Molnár: Having participated in the Venice Biennale curated by Adam Budak he is currently in the spotlight of the international 11
art scene and receives lot of curatorial attention. I think this participation contributed to his artistic career a lot. I find Denes’s work deeply intellectual. Using photos and words in his installations he reflects on the relationship between words and space. His works have many elements and layers that are all interrelated which makes them clear and complex at the same time. AGE: What was exhibited? Ani Molnár: The installation at the Armory Show was a combination of two previous projects which is made complete by a largescale photo. Both projects’Credo’ and ‘Ars poetica’ use fragments of texts coupled with photos of spaces. However, they have different underlying themes; ‘Credo’ concentrates on belief, while ‘Ars poetica’ on poetry. The works address the relationship of space to words and the search for ‘meaning’ in its broader sense. The show focuses not only on the meaning of words, the relativity of understanding, but also on the meaning of our existence, how things make sense in our world. We got very positive feedback for the booth both from the general and the professional public. A full set of “Ars Poetica” was sold to a well known Los Angeles based collector.
AGE: What other exhibitions or galleries / events could you attend? Ani Molnár: Due to the high number of visitors of the fair and our booth (collectors, curators, journalist and the general public) I had little time to look around. During the Armory Show I visited only one private (Hort) and one corporate collection, both very impressive. After the fair I had a look at the Whitney Biennial, a great retrospective at the MOMA by Isa Genzken and a new installation by William Kentridge at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Certainly the biggest experience from all was to visit the major New York based galleries in Chelsea. I was impressed by the size of the spaces and the quality of the shows. AGE: What are your further plans for this year? Ani Molnár: 2014 is a very busy year for the Ani Molnár Gallery. After ARCOmadrid and the Armory Show we will participate at Art Brussels in April and we plan to be at Viennafair and Artissima again in the autumn. The gallery is going to have 5 exhibitions in Budapest as well and the Park Gallery project is continuing with a new show in April.

Inda Gallery Budapest @ VOLTA NY Inda Gallery’s scope of activities is defined by the young and middle-aged artists who depict the modern tendencies of representational art in their work. Primarily, the artists are selected by quality, and also their conceptual, thematic and technical connection with contemporary art tendencies. ArtGuideEast asked director Ágnes Tallér about their participation at VOLTA NY. Art Guide East (AGE): This will be your fifth participation at VOLTA NY, how do you evaulate your presence at this fair? Ágnes Tallér: Our presence at the Volta show is consistent. This year, once again, we continued pursuing our strategy of presenting conceptual art in an art-fair context for at least two well-grounded reasons. One is that showing a type of conceptual art where the aesthetic element is fully in line with our philosophy as a gallery. The other consideration has been, since our first appearance in New York, to focus on a special segment of visitors and collectors, namely, those distinguished by a kind of openness and sensitivity to concept. AGE: Who are you going to exhibit this year?
Ágnes Tallér, director of INDA Gallery courtesy of INDA Gallery
Ágnes Tallér: Róza El-Hassan. She was an obvious choice for the internationally recognized quality of her art and also for the fact that she is an established artist with a very strong track record. She represented Hungary at the Venice Biennale already in the early 1990s, and has been shown across Europe, the Americas and the Middle East ever since. We are very confident that her incredibly strong work is also relevant in the more commercial scene of New York, and will come through that context as well. AGE: What will be exhibited? Ágnes Tallér: Wooden and mixed media sculptures, watercolours and drawings. Recent works and also ones that have already interviews
been exhibited at important exhibitions, including her wooden sculptures titled Little Monk (2012) and Two Buddhists Visiting Hagar (2005), and Enigma (2013). AGE: What other exhibitions or galleries / events are you planning to attend? Ágnes Tallér: While in New York, we will definitely attend most of the other fairs during the Volta Show. I would be very interested to see the Isa Genzken exhibition and the Sonnabend history show at the MoMA, and also the one on photographic practices there. The ancient and contemporary Chinese ink show and the new Kentridge acquisition at the Metropolitan Museum are also on my wishlist, and I would definitely like to see the Si13
mon Evans show at the James Cohan Gallery, for interest in Evans’ work and my respect of Cohan as a gallerist. AGE: What are Inda Gallery’s further plans for this year ? Ágnes Tallér: Several projects are in progress, such as Lajos Csontó’s upcoming exhibition in March and April, to be followed by a group exhibition of the gallery’s artists, where the focus is on self-reflection. We are also talking to one established and several emerging artists about working together but at this point, it would be too early to disclose the names. We are also looking for ways very actively to increase our presence abroad, and a few projects seem to be materializing along that line.

Duplex100m2 @ Art Paris Duplex100m2 is pursuing and expanding on the foundations laid down in the previous years: producing, exhibiting and promoting the Bosnian and Balkan arts scene, with partnerships, with art projects and with art professionals from all over the world. At Art Paris Art Fair 2014, Duplex100m2 exhibits works of four artists who are representative of the vitality of the Sarajevo art scene as ArtGuideEast has learnt from Pierre Courtin, director of Duplex 100m2 Sarajevo-Paris. ArtGuideEast(AGE): Why is important for you to participate at Art Paris? Pierre Courtin: To promote internationally the Bosnian Art Scene. To show to everybody that the Bosnian art scene is very interesting. To sell art works because artists absolutely need money, more than anywhere in Europe since most of the museums are closed, same goes for many institutions, no residency programmes, no concours... I love this sentence that is really relevant : „ ‚If you are looking for hell, ask the artist where it is. If you don’t find the artist, you are already in hell.’ by Avigdoor Pawsner. I do all my best to make sure to always find artists... AGE: Who are you going to exhibit?
Pierre Courtin, director of Duplex100m2 @ Art Paris, courtesy of Duplex100m2
Pierre Courtin: Mladen Miljanovic, Adela Jusic, Radenko Milak, Maja Bajevic AGE: On what grounds have you selected them? Pierre Courtin: It was very important for me to show the work „The Garden Of Delights” of Mladen Miljanovic who was presented at
Mladen Miljanović «The Garden of Delights» Installation, metal, engraving on granite, 240x400cm, 2013, courtesy of Duplex100m2 16 www.artguideeast.org
the last Venice Biennale after 10 years of absence. I also show a huge series „365-Image of Time” of Radenko Milak, one of the best painters of Bosnia whom I have been working with for a long time. Also Adela Jusic who is doing extremely strong art works about personal/collective memory. Her topic and questions are the most interesting for me since I am from Bosnia. Also Maja Bajevic who is one of the most established Bosnian artists, who is well known internationally as well...she will have some of her works presented in the Pompidou in July for the next two years in their public collection. In short what I want and this is the best... AGE: What do you expect from the fair? Pierre Courtin: To gain approval for the gal-
lery in the international art market, to show the gallery from Sarajevo on a high level, to „consolidate” our relationship with collectors, curators and institutions from Paris. AGE: What are the gallery’s further plans this year? Pierre Courtin: There are so many things ... very important is the show that I am working on now : a big collective exhibition of Bosnian artists called „Memory Lane” in the „Galerie du Jour-agnès b” in Paris next June 2014.

ArtGuideEast (AGE): Why is important for you to participate at Art Paris? Oxana Korneeva: It’s the first fair for our gallery and we are happy to be here and participate in Art Paris.

AGE: What are you going to exhibit? Oxana Korneeva: We’re exhibiting five contemporary artists from St. Petersburg. They represent different art movements that were and are very active in St. Petersburg and that are very charecteristic of this city. Neoacademism is an art movement that was founded in the early 1990s in St. Petersburg by Timur Novikov. Oleg Maslov, Olga Tobreluts and Victor Kuznetsov are among members of this movement and The New Academy of Fine Arts. It was a radical movement for that time. Neoacademism was in opposition to Moscow’s Romantic Conceptualism. Neoacademism revived classical Italian tradition but mixed it with contemporary mass culture images. In presented works neoacademism continues its influence but in a new way. Olga Tobreluts modifies classical Italian landscapes by computer editing. In a painting by Oleg Maslov and Victor Kuznetsov’s worksite its bright acid colors seem like a negative of a photo. Andrey Gorbunov is attributed as a successor to another prominent movement in St. Petersburg from the early 1990s, Necrorealism. Andrey Gorbuinterviews
comes from the industrial region of Kuzbass coal mining region, he uses original material, „kuzbasslak” which is an anti-corrosive coal resin, to translate ideas. Here nostalgic landscapes turn out to be hills that are left after coal mining. AGE: On what grounds have you selected them? Oxana Korneeva: We’ve selected these artists because we work with them and they’re strong representatives of the St. Petersburg art school. AGE: What are the gallery’s further plans this year? Oxana Korneeva: This year 10th edition of European biennial Manifesta will be held in St. Petersburg at The State Hermitage Museum. We’re planning a solo exhibition of Olga Tobreluts during the parallel program of this great event. And, of course, we’ll be further promoting our artists and looking for new ones.

The privatization of institutions and infrastructure does not always entail noticeable changes to the built environment.

Artworks in the exhibition will address shifts in the everyday as a result of privatization, whether drastically experienced or barely registered.

During the studies, he formed a group project called The Power of Three, together with his colleagues from the studio. The main common theme in their work was the inspiration in the late 19th century paintings. This inspiration is still present in Petrlík´s work. However, it has no function as nostalgia or old thinking. The visuality of his paintings is utterly contemporary, fleeting, sometimes quite cynical. In his exhibition a series of work associated with a portrait of a local princess from his collection is displayed. When: 21 March- 18 May 2014 What’s on: Daniela Baráčková Daniela Baráčková (*1981) works mainly in the medium of videoart. In her pieces, she deals with basic themes – identity, interpersonal relationships or position of an individual in the context of his environment. She explores a family history, local traditions,
methods of communication, actual life situations. She stages performances as a theatre pieces, narrates various contents in the unattended point of view. Her „actors“ – often family members – repeat or paraphrase different situations or dialogues.

Exhibition therefore presents objects, which are neither art nor design but rather completely fall out of this distinction. Participating artists: Cory Arcangel (US), Anna-Sophie Berger (AT), Julie Bena (FR), James Clarkson (UK), Silvie Defraoui (CH), Anežka Hošková (CZ), Sandra Lorenzi (FR), Marlie Mul (NL/DE), Richard Nikl (CZ), Michal Nesázal (CZ), Hynek Poul (CZ), Justin Sanchez (FR), Scheltens & Abbenes (NL), Aleksandra Vajd & Hynek Alt (CZ/SLO), Ola Vasiljeva (NL/LV) Curated by Michal Novotný When: 2 April- 15 June 2014 Opening hours: Wed-Sun 11am- 6pm Futura: Karlin Studios Prague Křižíkova 34, 180 00 PRAGUE 8 – Karlín, Czech Republic www.futuraproject.cz What’s on: Revelation The group exhibition presents different approaches to art as criticism through the work of a young generation of artists from Eastern Germany. The artists, all born in the 70s and 80s and coming from comparable backgrounds, explore different forms of socially-engaged art and criticism. Their works deal with societal narratives and transformation processes taking place at the local level and responding to current discourses in Germany, but also in Prague: feminism, post-socialism, social inequality, creative work conditions... Participating artists: Luise Schröder (DE), VIP - Venus in Panik (DE), Anne Hofmann (DE), Sophie Vollmar (DE), Cornelia Friederike Müller (DE) Curated by Henrike Böhm When: 30 April- 25 May 2014 Opening hours: Wed-Sun 12- 6 pm

What’s on: Réka Szent-Iványi: There’s nothing wrong with that „Where does the private space begin and where does it end? Whose private space is it? Mine or the one of the person captured on the photographs? Who is entering where? The photographs of Réka Szent-Iványi do not wish to provoke, and still, they do, do not wish to judge, and still they do. They provoke and judge the viewer, shouting out the words “intimate” and “private”. In truth they are “quiet” documents, the imprints of a man’s life nicknamed Torgyán, thrown very gently in a naturalistic manner to our faces by Szent-Iványi. The medium is the negative, the subject is the everyday life of Torgyán. How do we react after entering the private life of a man, who shares a one-bedroom panel apartment with his mother, a dog and a cat, and facing all the absurdities of his life? The photographs are showing us a dimension, where we do not know, cannot know, which part is true and which is just for the show, but these correlating reality-layers are the ones creating that complex texture we define as life, in this case as the private life of Torgyán. Actions occurring by ourselves and inside of ourselves

between the four walls of our home only concerns one: us, alone. Gaining insight into such deeds is an intimate act, which is bound to the permission of the revealing one. We give and gain permission, triggering the collision of private spaces. Who is entering where? These series of pictures hit like a punch in the stomach, they push you, grab you, embrace you and leave you alone. These pictures crawl inside your private space, demanding answers.

plying his specific vibrant abstract language, but one which at some points still can be retraced to a representational approach, traditionally taught in Russian art academies. In his drawings, mostly using pencil or pastel, he is elaborating complex layers of color, structure, semi-abstract forms, sharp and soft strokes. All those elements compete with each other, but none of them is inferiored. Gorhskov defines a somehow harmonious setting for those contradictory forces without withdrawing the perceivable tension. When: 27 March- 24 May 2014 Kogart House Budapest Andrássy Str. 112. 1062 Budapest, Hungary www.kogart.hu What’s on: The Spirit of Mountains, the Fragrance of Flowers – Chinese ink painting in the 19th and 20th century A special exhibition is on view at KOGART House: the Kovács Gábor Art Foundation presents the finest items from the Chinese ink painting collection of the Three Gorges Museum, Chongqing. The Three Gorges Museum is one of China’s most important museums, whose collection of traditional ink painting boasts tens of thousands of outstanding works. This exhibition offers local art lovers an opportunity to familiarize themselves with a unique style of painting that is seldom on view in Central Europe. Chinese ink painting has a tradition of 2000 years. In Chinese thinking, literature was considered the premier form of art and discipline, with painting being the second most important. The two, however, developed in close association: ink-and-brush calligraphy, and the almost unconscious movements associated with it, served as the basis of traditional ink painting.

Kassák Museum Budapest Fő Sqr 1. 1033 Budapest, Hungary www.kassakmuzeum.hu What’s on: Kassák and Kassák 2 The exhibition focuses on the how the rediscovery of the Eastern European avant garde in Western Europe spurred Kassák to rework some of his early (1920s) output after his Paris exhibition in 1960. It is a phenomenon which the museum addressed once before, in 2009, under the title Kassák and Kassák. Taking an aesthetic approach to Kassák’s work of the period 1959–1967, Gábor Andrási has analysed the challenges Kassák faced after he became the object of international attention. The new exhibition takes Andrási’s hypothesis further to examine the career constraints for an Eastern European artist, and the consequences of decisions for art history, museum representation and not least for the individuals involved.

Ludwig Museum Budapest MűPa, Komor Marcell Str. 1. 1095 Budapest, Hungary www.ludwigmuseum.hu What’s on: Judit Reigl: Emptiness and Ecstasy Painter Judit Reigl was born in 1923 in Kapuvár, and has been living and working in France since 1950. She is one of the rare artists of Hungarian origins who is recognised in the United States, and whose oeuvre uniquely combines the traditions of European and American abstraction. Her paintings figure in the largest and most important public contemporary art collections: the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Tate Modern in London, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. The exhibition arranged at the Ludwig Museum Budapest attempts to present the varied problematics and various stations of this extraordinary life oeuvre, both thematically and chronologically, from Surrealist compositions, through her gestural abstract works, up to her paintings depicting the human body.. The exhibition is realised with the collaboration of Kálmán Makláry Fine Arts, with the support of the Institut Français and the British Council, Budapest, and as an opening
programme of the Budapest Spring Festival. The exhibition is curated by Kálmán Makláry and Róna Kopeczky.

Out of discarded yet extant images, archived private pictures and further remnants of the past, Zsuzsa Bakonyi, Gergely Barcza and Katalin Illés construct new, contemporary narratives. How do we use analog pictures from our childhood in the age of digital remembrance and identity? How can we appropriate unknown people’s private photographs from a time long lost? How do we consume the fossilized material culture of semi-public spaces, such as store windows? gallery guide

The aim of the exhibition is to collect and show different relevant methods and already running programs of artists from the central-European region who deal with abstraction, sometimes even utopian modernism as a non-referential tool. The clear point of the exhibition is to show in a very compressed way, how some of the emerging artists of the region are trying to articulate a new purely visual language, by constructing new genres in an instinctive way, rather than using modernism as an art historical reference in order to try to mediate contemporary content though the re-contextualization of (art) history.

“When I was getting ready for the exhibition, the main question for me was how powerful the very idea is. Is a story more important than work itself? Is it possible for the work to have its own language that does not always coincide with the author’s story? What is the difference between a written idea and visual idea? Does the magic of a painting disappear when transposed into a text? “– that is how the idea of the new exhibition is presented by Jolanta Kyzikaitė who emphasises that viewer feedback is very important to her.

What’s on: Jakub Woynarowski: Saturnia Regna
For Jakub Woynarowski’s premiere exhibition at BWA Warszawa, the gallery presents works from the Novus Ordo Seclorum series which serves as a visual essay on the foundations of Modern Art. Using reworked themes familiar from modernist iconography, the artist reveals the links between far-removed (in time and space) centres of European thought, such as that of Norymberg in the 16th century, Paris during the French Revolution or the stoking revolutionary fever of Moscow.

Life in Poland has become terrifyingly ordinary.

This is often central to her works in public spaces, for example, Greetings from Jerusalem Avenue (2002, Warsaw), orBenjamin in Konya (2010, Turkey). Rajkowska sometimes uses private mythologies in her work, which in her interpretation become a universal story. The exhibition Gold, Silver, Brass includes works created by Rajkowska over the past six years. The starting point is the artist’s family history – an ordinary bourgeois family from Warsaw, their story similar to that of

Sector 1, Bucharest, Romania www.418gallery.com What’s on: Cristian Raduta: Unattended Ceremony Cristian Rădut,ă (b. 1982, living and working in Bucharest) is a preoccupied artist. Preoccupied with art as a subject, with art as an object, with the evolution and continuous gallery guide
changes in the contemporary artistic landscape, with the relations between the artwork and the surrounding space, with the reinvention of some consecrated, primordial forms, as well as with the crises which can occur during the evolution of a work of art. (...) From the paradoxical softness of a violent body, the artist has reached spontaneously the latent violence of some safe spaces and the anxiety generated by them. A symbol of safety and strength – the concrete wall – will become in this case an object of stagnation, the way of no return. Such moments of crisis may occur in the existence of anybody who is interested in the unquantifiable things, such as pure art, the way it is perceived during creation and by the artist’s mind.

The exhibition DARKER THAN BLACK presents a selection of nine authors and one artistic collective, in whose work black appears more or less regularly. The selected artworks also reflect various ways and strategies how artists use and perceive the black colour in contemporary art practice.

Sikora at ZAHORIAN&co GALLERY. Rudolf Sikora prepred a new cycle of works wonders also generically-media puzzle: we have before us a drawing, graphics or painting? All at once in one? Or the most important thing is coming up at the end, at the touch of a brush? He says that the answer is not important. Let take this meaning how authentic author Sikora is (even a little bit subversive) contribution to the unending discusion about the meaning and essence of contemporary painting. When:15 March- 25 April 2014 What’s on: Andrej Dúbravský The orthodoxies of art today are surprisingly puritanical. Many of the subjective realities that lie buried in each and everyone of us - and in the psyche of each sensitive artist especially - are lost in self-conscious searches for essentially abstract and critical metaphors, where the alienation principal above all seems to reign supreme, disguising subjective realities and obsessions. Directly expressive figurative painting seems to play an ever more marginal role within the large field of legitimised contemporary art. We clearly
now live in a world of an exponentially expanded age of technological possibilities of making and reproducing imagery. Where can old - fashioned painting - oil or acrylic colour on often large duck canvases, such as are employed with a very idiosyncratic style and subject matter by the young painter Andrej Dúbravský, fit into the scheme of art today? It is not as though the world of art is not on the constant look out for young talented practioners of painting, still one of the most direct ways of expressing a subjectively obsessive world picture. Part of the problem might be the difficulty of confronting the reality of the painting itself in an age of endless reproduction on the screen, even more than in a book or magazine which makes the true quality of surface and touch, even simple size, so all important in determining value, difficult if not impossible to assess. The only way of looking at a painting is direct contact with the original to fully understand what used commonly to be described as its tactile value.

Yet, according to Pablo Garcia, “virtuality – the systematic approximation and representation of reality – existed long before computers”, and manifested itself in perspective, optics applied to image making, and then in photography and cinema. Adventures in Virtuality is a show that collects some of the recent developments in the work of US based artist Pablo Garcia, all related to his time traveling through these “several millennia of virtuality”. When: 2-18 April 2014 (Opening 2 April 2014
at 7 pm) What’s on: Golan Levin Et All: New Media Installation Golan Levin’s artworks focus on the design of systems for the creation, manipulation and performance of simultaneous image and sound, as part of a more general inquiry into formal languages of interactivity and of nonverbal communication in cybernetic systems, but projects in exhibition at Aksioma belong to a different set of concerns, more related to hacker ethics and to the extension of the open source philosophy to the creation of tools for social creativity and expression.
