JANEK SIMON & VLAD NANCĂ - REMIX

I first met Janek Simon in 2004 and since then we've been in different projects together. At the end of last month we were involved in an experiment in which we took works from each other and we changed them. The result was the "Remix" exhibition at Raster Gallery in Warsaw. It's been one of the best experiences I've had as an artist and I am really thankful to all those involved in the realization of this show - Raster Gallery and Romanian Institute in Warsaw and of course Janek!!! Details about the show here and some images of the works coming soon... Exhibition is on display until 3 May.

Where is Vlad Nanca?

I am alive and doing much better. Thanks to good doctors and good drugs.

If you give it to me I give it to you

"If you give it to me I give it to you" is the name of my newest work, an installation which is shown at Casal Solleric in Palma de Mallorca in a brilliant exhibition called Art for fun curated by David Arlandis and Javier Maroqui.

Dominoes and ups and downs

Playing with dominoes is pretty much the game that Bucharest has been going through with its architecture... The thing is... if you make a mistake then everything goes down, like in real life. The only difference is that in real life you can at least try to avoid mistakes.

Some photography (c) by Dacian Groza

Dacian Groza is a great photographer. Today I got an email from him saying that I got tagged and a link to his blog where he said:
"As everyone and their dog is tagging everyone else on blogs, asking each other's secrets and forwarding it to everybody else, I'm going to tag Noper, Cristina Negrau, Vlad Nanca, Saddo and Mona Miclea to pick one of my photos and draw over it, mash it or mix it with something else, or whatever they want to do to make anything else. [...] And, of course, you should forward the tag to the next subjects :P"

To be honest with you I can't really change anything about his pictures as I like them as they are. What I am doing though is to mix one of my images among two of his and let everyone know I wish I were Dacian Groza.

I also love the work of everyone else Dacian got into his little game and is an honor to be among them. You should also check out Fotofangen, another playground where Dacian, Mona and I are playing with other photographers.

I am tagging Tudor, Tudor, Tudor, Maria and Oana.
So, pick one of my photos and draw over it, mash it or mix it with something else, or whatever you want to do to make anything else. Of course, you should forward the tag to the next subjects :P
