The Interart Triade Foundation and Attila KIM • architects are pleased to announce the opening of TRAIAN CHERECHEȘ solo exhibition, titled CREATIVE DESTRUCTION* — AN ESCAPE ROOM, on Thursday, September 7th, at 6 PM, at Cazarma U. The artist and both curators of the exhibition – Ami Barak and Bogdan Ghiu will be joining us for the opening event. 

Traian Cherecheș approaches painting, sculpture, drawing and sound using a narrative and iconographic framework that captures the forces driving organic and inorganic materials, between creation and destruction, contraction and expansion, metamorphosis and transmutation, and their potential for renewal. 

His works recycle objects by addition or division to highlight material becoming. Through his work, he explores contemporary obsessions and paradigm shifts, hence the title chosen for this exhibition. 

The escape room in the title describes the space occupied and delimited by the artist as a playground for shared experience, and thus a figuration of the place of art in the contemporary world through a pre-occupied and intelligent place, capable of restoring unity between sociality, matter and spirit through its empowerment by the “human collective”, guarantee of a “parliament of things”
(as Bruno Latour calls them).

*The concept of creative destruction is a process whereby inventions and innovations make existing technologies and activities constantly obsolete. It was theorized by the economist Joseph Schumpeter, and seems to us to suit the artist’s generic approach.

The exhibition will be on display until October 1, on the ground floor of the barracks. You can visit it from Wednesday to Thursday between 1:00 PM & 8:00 PM and from Friday to Sunday between 12:00 PM & 8:00 PM.

The exhibition's closing event will take place on September 27th at 6:00 PM.

Admission is free.
