About The Event
In the middle of the pandemic, artists are finding countless ways to continue their practice and lift our spirits. Eight Romanian artists have taken our challenge with the kind of ingenuity one would expect from highly creative minds and are ready to share with us and the world, every week, how the current situation impacts them and their artistic imagination. We are happy to announce the launching of our newest online program, ART FIGHTS CORONA, which debuts this Friday with artist and curator Ioana Ciocan, the GM of influential Art Safari Romania Fair, who unveils the joys and sorrows of living in an astonishing time.
