Over the past years,
@romaniancreativeweek.ro has quietly grown into one of the most alive and ambitious cultural platforms in Iași, and among the best in Romania as a whole, a framework where contemporary art, design, fashion, architecture, music, technology, and emerging creative practices intersect across the city through exhibitions, talks, interventions, screenings, performances, and collective encounters.
Behind this ambitious and ever-growing initiative stands
@irinaschrotter — the driving force and soul of RCW — whose continued support for contemporary culture has helped shape a meaningful space for dialogue and collaboration.
We also what to thank
@avi_cicirean for bringing together galleries, artists, curators, and collectors within this year’s program, and for the invitation to be part of these days in Iași.
This year, several artists connected to our gallery are part of RCW across multiple exhibitions:
> Bogdan Rața is included in Beyond Words, Unspoken Stories at the Art Museum within Palatul Culturii Iași — an exhibition reflecting on the limits of language and the capacity of image, body, and materiality to carry what cannot fully be spoken, curated by Ștefania Dobrescu and Roxana Tolici
> Ana Ionescu is part of Metaphora at Sala Voievozilor, a project exploring metaphor as a structure of knowledge and as a process of translating meaning between image, experience, and imagination, curated by Marian Pălie
> Andreea Ilie and Ana Ionescu are part of HYDROPHORIA at Baia Turcească, a group exhibition curated by Caterina Pruteanu, exploring water as a space of suspended time, pleasure, vulnerability, and resistance within contemporary culture.
> Radu Oreian participates in art/if/acts.Spirit, Residual at Centrul Internațional de Artă Contemporană Baia Turcească, alongside artists whose practices investigate the relationship between gesture, materiality, corporeality, and the invisible forces that shape form, curated by Andra Handric.
Congratulations to everyone involved in making RCW happen. You can visit all these exhibitions and more until May 24th. Visit RCW website for all informations.
