Fantomatica Istorie Naturala by Mirela Ivanciu @ Galeria Halucinarium
| 06.05.2019, Halucinarium (Calea Giulesti nr 14, etaj 4, 060275)
Luni 06 mai, ora 19 sunteti invitati la vernisajul expozitiei Fantomatica Istorie Naturala, solo show al artistei Mirela Ivanciu.
Conceptul expozitiei reda intr-o maniera extrem de contemporana atmosfera vechilor cabinete de curiozitati, transpunand privitorul intr-o lume misterioasa si ciudata.
Foarte la moda in secolele XVIII si XIX, cabinetele de curiozitati adunau tot felul de animale din locuri exotice, cu anomalii sau pur si simplu extraordinare, mini gradini botanice unde erau aclimatizate soiuri rare, mecanisme si obiecte ciudate.
Un fel de ecosisteme mentinute in viata sau expuse intr-un cadru artificial, rupte din contexul organic. O atmosfera stranie, nefireasca, un fel de gradina imaginara in care salasluiesc creaturi, pasari, animale si plante dintre cele mai neobisnuite, care in mod iluzoriu par familiare, comune.
Lucrarile care fac parte din aceasta expozitie traduc in cheie contemporana atmosfera/conceptul de baza al acestor cabinete de curiozitati. Desenele de mari dimensiuni si instalatiile grafice expuse fie ca redau pasari, animale recognoscibile sau nu, fie ca prezinta gradini exotice luxuriante sau imaginare, transmit aceasta atmosfera stranie, de neorganicitate, de anormalitate, de spatiu artificial, improvizat.
Expozitia creeaza un ecosistem vizual unic in care modul de parcurgere, de citire a lucrarilor, genereaza un traseu care scoate privitorul din zona de confort.
Extrapoland, aceasta “colectionare”, acest proces de “salvare” se intampla in zilele noastre. Datorita poluarii si crizelor locale sau globale de mediu, anumite specii sunt in mod direct amenintate, multe chiar au disparut. Mentinerea lor se realizeaza uneori prin crearea unor ecosisteme care sunt intretinute artificial generand un nou concept al cabinetelor de curiozitati. Daca nu luam masuri, in curand lumea noastra asa cum o stim, asa cum ne bucuram de ea acum, ne va incanta doar in fotografii, in cabinete de curiozitati.

Halucinarium Gallery introduces a new art project: “Fantomatica Istorie naturala”, drawings and graphic installations by Mirela Ivanciu. The exhibition will be on view until 13th of June.
The exhibition’s concept is interpreting in a contemporary key the atmosphere of the old cabinets of curiosities, transposing the viewer in a misterious and bizarre world. Very fashionable during XVIII and XIX centuries, the cabinets of curiosities were displaying all sort of exotic animals, abnormal or simply extraordinary, miniature botanical gardens where rare species were acclimatised, mechanisms and strange objects. An ecosystem kept alive and displayed in an artificial mise en scene, turn apart from their organic context. A peculiar atmosphere, unnatural, an imaginary garden with unusual, rare creatures, birds, animals and plants, all living an illusive artificial life, that somehow seems common, familiar.
Mirela Ivanciu’s exhibition is similar to a contemporary cabinets of curiosities. Large drawings and graphic instalations picturing birds, animals that you might recognize, exotic luxurious gardens. A misterious and bizarre feeling of unorganic, abnormal. An artificial, improvised space. The exhibition creates a unique visual ecosystem where the viewer is guided on a path that takes him out of his comfort zone.
Extrapolating, this process of collecting, of “saving” is also happening these days. Due to pollution and environmental local/global crises, some species and places are directly threatened, many already dissapeared. To keep this ecosystem alive, we sometimes need to create artificial ones, generatig a new concept of cabinets of curiosities. If we do not act, soon, our world, the way we know it, the way we enjoy it now, will charm us only in photos. In cabinets of curiosities.
