Badly Happy: Pain, Pleasure, and Panic in Recent Romanian Art
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
The Performance Art Institute and Romanian Cultural Institute present the performance and visual arts installations Badly Happy. Pain, Pleasure and Panic in Recent Romanian Art and As Far As I Can Tape.
Through the diverse and sometimes discordant media of performance & video art, painting, graphics, and objects, the exhibits will convey in visual terms the psyche of a world caught in the destructive and regenerative tornado triggered by the thrilling collapse of communism and its replacement with Wild West-style capitalism in 1989. The clash between this new, exciting, but ultimately disappointing reality and the nostalgia for an idealized experience of regained freedom propelled a disquieting, inciting and vivid artistic output.
