What connects the historical avant-gardes with artists working today? How can art remain both radical and popular?
The boundaries between “modern” and “contemporary” are less fixed than they may initially appear, and their coexistence often reveals an uninterrupted continuity.
Diana Marincu, Artistic Director of Art Encounters, and Ami Barak, curator and art critic, discuss the threads connecting the major artistic revolutions of the 20th century with artistic practices today.
The discussion will be held in Romanian.
