BUCHAREST BIENNALE 6 List of artists & News / Please follow us for news on www.facebook.com/BucharestBiennial / Pentru informaÈii Ãn limba romÃnÄ: www.bucharestbiennale.org/ro BUCHAREST BIENNALE 6 APPREHENSION. UNDERSTANDING THROUGH FEAR OF UNDERSTANDING 23 May â 24 July 2014 5 venues and several public spaces in Bucharest, panel discussions and lectures, connected events and around 20 parallel events. --- OPENING DAY FOR PRESS AND PROFESSIONALS May 22, 2014 11.00 Press conference @ Intercontinental Hotel, in the presence of the artists, the curator, the director and the founders. 12.00 On road PERFORMANCE by Cezar LÄzÄrescu & 1+1 (RO) 18.00 GRAMATIK OF FEAR @University of Arts, Bucharest (str. GriviÈei nr. 28) Free entrance. A panel discussion on how fear and it's component parts combine to form with GergÅ HorvÃth (curator of BB6), Adrian Dan (artist), Erwin Wurm (artist), JÃnos SugÃr (artist), Filip Gilissen (artist), Jan Kaila (artist, professor at Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinky), Carlos Aires (artist), Liviana Dan (interimary director of MNAC).. Moderated by RÄzvan Ion & Eugen RÄdescu (professors at University of Bucharest). As archaic use of fear was defined as a mixed feeling of dread and reverence. Dread is today defined as great fear or apprehension. Reverence as deep respect for someone or something. There is a paradox in mainstream Christianity, for example, which is presented as a religion of love, but which alienates with its dogmas and backs up fears of the temporal world with threats of Hellfire to come. It is tyrannies not democracies which thrive on the politics of fear. At the same time tyrannies does not mean also violence. Means very respectful fear. A fear which you believe is good because will protect you from evil. Fear has a stronger biochemical component than some other emotions, and there is little to be done by reason if really strong fear takes hold. The participants will explore the double meaning of the word apprehension, the fear or anxiety that something bad might happen and in the sense of comprehension. 13.00 - 19.00 Exhibition will be open for press and professionals Accreditation only. 22.00 Live PERFORMANCE by Dromedar (NO) @ Control Club (Str. Constantin Mille nr. 4) Invitation only. 23.00 GRAND OPENING PARTY with DJ set by Bogman. @Club Control powered by Reforma (www.re-forma.ro) Invitation only. --- APPREHENSION. UNDERSTANDING THROUGH FEAR OF UNDERSTANDING The exhibition will explore the double meaning of the word apprehension, the fear or anxiety that something bad might happen and in the sense of comprehension. The relation between the two needs a closer look. How fear is developed and maintained throughout our lives and how it can become a tool for learning and understanding. How it is administered and maintained socially, politically, how it affects the development of our ideology and how we can learn from it. The time is now to reassess and to raise some questions about certain aspects of everyday life that might have gone unnoticed.

ABOUT BUCHAREST BIENNALE BUCHAREST BIENNALE promotes awareness and dissemination of the culture, particularly in the fields of the arts, by means of exchanges and cultural cooperation within Europe and beyond and is looking for strategies that would develop mutual understanding and offer insights from different perspectives. We assume the urge of a dialogue with the public, of a platform for artists as much as the need of reinventing new forms of artistic expression and encourage curators to make a large selection of artists who would represent best the European unity in diversity. BB aims to resolve the twofold problems of tradition and modernity, past and present, localism and global village, it strives to attain a balanced status between its aesthetic/artistic quality and popularity by overcoming the feeling of estrangement that the general public has towards the contemporary arts. BB is building a strong partnership between Bucharest â which is more than a city, it is a symbol of how political can be reflected in every aspect of life â and the Western Europe; it links to an universal problem â that does not take into consideration the geographical or historical context â the problem of resistance in daily life, of details and living as a way of living. BB is a structure able to transform the City itself into an ongoing workshop-cum-field of action. Today, BUCHAREST BIENNALE is the only contemporary art biennial in Central and East Europe. --- More details at: www.bucharestbiennale.org www.facebook.com/bucharestbiennial --- Image: Alejandro Vidal (ES), Any idea that can be defended is presumed guilty, installation, paper plane folded with CIA original letter office paper, desk, dimensions variable, 2011.
