VERSION .01 project still in progress by Nicu Baciu-Mircea Cantor-Cip Muresan-Gabi Vanga This is a project for a publication, a kind of newspaper about art and artist, young critics, philosophers, curators, underground zones, music, public shows, DJ, useful information and maybe advice, Inserts, publicity, in fact it is a link between spaces, generations, influences, styles.This version wants to promote young people, youngcreators-young people featuring young people.We understand differently our generation because we are a part of it and we try to offer a view from the inside.The problems to discuss: about strategy, rules, and politics useful in the art field, about the importance of the official and alternative institutions when we talk about the career of a young artist, about structure, orientation, big or small shows, big or small curators, about possibilities of promotion ,but also about underground("Unlike during the 1960s, an artist today no longer needs to emigrate to become international."( Manifesta 2) and still, the emigration is a real problem, the context in which you live, and the way this matter can affect you, your integrity, creation, human relationships, the lack of money, many projects without having a chance to be realised, questions about how free we are and so on…. You must be a survivor to resist throughout this situation, to never give up. We decided to start this project in order to create a space for debates-all the aspects and problems of our context. 1. INSERT -pages dedicated to a young artist, accompanied by texts, personal projects, reviews, photographs, interviews, maybe just a project of the artist, personal intervention, it is a long list because each issue will present a different artist. 2. RELATIONS-a documentary about the relation between institutions and artist, the importance of the official institutions and the necessity of alternative institution as well, the try of making a comparison between Romania (EAST, in general ) and WEST,talks about borders and politics. 3. ART-MARKET-a study on the relation artist-public-work and art-buyer. Who buys contemporary art? Who is the public? Can we talk about a market for contemporary art in the EAST Europe or is just fiction?Does it have(this market) a real importance in the development and suvival of the contemporary art?For this subject we will make a documentation about the persons who buy this kind of art, about the existence of the art market, and where we can find an art market, about the information arrived at the audience andhow contemporary art is understood from outside (ordinary people). 4. ART IN PUBLIC SPACES- documentary about relation between art and public spaces , interventions, graffiti, pulling down, contemporary sculpture , architecture , enviromental art. We want with this publication to create a link among artists, to find out more about young artists, to know details about what our generation think, do, feel, no matter the geographical zone, social statements, preference, nationality, taste. If you think you are really interested in one of these subjects and you want to collaborate with us, please send us an e-mail. We want to print in 1000 copy this publication and now we try to make a list, to gather lots of addressees by post, because our wish for this publication is to send it directly to the person who is interested, and not to be sold. It is a matter of strategy in the same time;to get finance for this project we must demonstrate that we have a list with persons who want to receive this publication. This is an open list in which anybody can add proposals. In fact we send you this text of our project especially to create a connection, to hear different points of view, to find collaborators. If you know somebody,eg-a young artist, who is interested in this kind of collaboration,give him or her our address and also if you wish to receive our publication, write us your address.
