Timișoara
In the city on the Bega river, only the Himera gallery joined Doi Joi this month. It proposes a guided tour in the collective exhibition ”The Past is a Very Insistent Voice”, , which features Călin Dumitrașcu, Marius Ghita, Ada Muntean, Maria Stoica and Laurențiu Zbîrcea.
Curated by Ada Muntean, the exhibition problematizes the relativity of presence and absence in relation to time and the interferences that insinuate between these coordinates at both abstract and concrete levels.
