Ciprian Muresan.
A Trilogy from Post-Communism

Cured by Francesca Guerisoli
Opening Tuesday 04/19, 6 p.m.


A Trilogy from Post-Communism is the title of Ciprian Muresan’s exhibition at CHAN’s, which presents the three animation movies Pioneer (2010), Garbage (2007), Baptised (2009).
Muresan freely switches between different media, creating sculptures, drawings, video, animation movies. Pioneer, Garbage and Baptised show one of the ways Muresan approaches the artistic process: he starts from some drawings and films them sheet by sheet - this way he transforms these sketches in animated short films. The films represent an analysis of the contemporary world and refer to collective experiences in the post-communist era: three belief systems - religion, communism, capitalism – can be distinguished on the background of these three animated films that begin from the ritual of accepting an individual in the community and end with his expulsion.
