The performance “Hundred Toasts” is a celebration. We toast remarkable people, events or natural phenomena that have had a significant impact on people and history. To some we will say “thank you”, to others “fuck you”, in both cases it will be a great pleasure. At the same time, we will toast to all of us. To those who still believe in the future and to those who have long since given up on politics, art, philosophy and religion. To all those who are with us and against us. To all those who are in front of us and behind us. To all those on the left and right and those stuck in the middle. To all those who will always praise us and to those who can no longer stand us. We will also raise a toast to those who brought us together. We will toast the existing artists, the deceased artists and all those who want to become artists. We toast the audience that patiently endures our artistic experiments and all the guardians of normality who turn away with contempt. Cheers Timișoara! Cheers TESZT!
