The group exhibition “LES FEMMES DU FEU” at the Sector 1 Gallery can be visited until Thursday, November 3. The curator of the exhibition Thale Blix Fastvold (b. 1978, Oslo) selected the creations of 10 female artists from Romania and Norway: Geta Brătescu, Codruța Cernea, Marianne Darlén Solhaugstrand, Karoline Hjorth & Riitta Ikonen, Hortensia Mi Kafchin, Tincuța Marin, Hedda Sterne, Ingrid Torvund and Ioana Ursa.

The exhibition “LES FEMMES DU FEU” brings back to the current cultural scene surrealism, both through works of the XXth century and contemporary works. Each female artist approached through her perspective the images of parallel worlds, in which the viewer comes into direct contact with the novelty and imaginations of mythical beings, specific to the imagination of the creators.

„Perhaps a new wave of surrealism is on the horizon. Similarly to the 1020s post-pandemic, post-first world war-feelings of upheaval and chaos, now again in 2022 surrealism makes sense. When Sector 1 gallery’s director Andreea Stanculeanu asked me to curate a show this new wave of surrealism was the theme I chose to focus on. As an artist, my curatorial method is intuitive and based on collective artistic research, and in LES FEMMES DU FEU we present a group of Norwegian and Romanian artists who are all working within the landscape of surrealism, reflecting on the surreal with various mediums and methods and from different viewpoints.”, described the curatorial approach Thale Blix Fastvold.

Visitors who want to explore the worlds proposed through the oniric vision of the ten local and foreign artists can do so until November 3, between 14:00 and 19:00.
