NEVER ALONE
04 June – 01 November 2015

Curators: the artistic duo Monotremu and visual artists & curators from MAGMA Contemporary Medium

Exhibiting artists: Irina Botea, Simion Cernică, Ioana Cojocariu, Csaba Csiki, Tatiana Fiodorova, Ciprian Homorodean, István László, Tibor Karoly Litiu, Xandra Popescu and Larisa Crunţeanu, Domokos Váncsa, Szabolcs Veres.

The central idea of the exhibition was inspired by Ioana Cojocariu’s artwork - Never Walk Alone and it aims to gather several Romanian artists living abroad to reflect upon the condition of being an emigrant through different artistic practices.

The exhibiting artists at Never Alone try to break the trivial condition of being an emigrant through their artworks. They take a look at their own condition from an external point of view, they transform it into the condition of the spectator, which implies that they are able to overcome stereotypes and prejudices and to treat them with irony and great humor.
