"Cluj , unknown -
Krakow, unknown"
At The Museum of Art, Cluj-Napoca (MACN)
On October 19th, 2015, at 18, the Polish-Romanian exhibition entitled "Cluj unknown - Krakow unknown" had its opening.
The event was organized by the Polish Center of Language and Culture of the ''Babes-Bolyai" University in collaboration with the Cluj County Council, The Museum of Art Cluj-Napoca, Multicultural Approach Association and the Municipality of Krakow.
The exhibition includes 40 photographs taken under the coordination of Prof.dr. Dorel Găină in Cluj-Napoca and artist Marcin Ryczek in Krakow and proposes a series of inspiring visions of the cities where the artists live.
The exhibited works belonged to Ştefan Bădulescu, Dorel Ştefan Găină, Mira Marincaş, Anca Ioana Măgurean, Maria Nicoară, Palfi-Horvath Ernö-Aron, Oana Pop, Emil Seliştean from România and Andrzej Banas, Bogdan Frymorgen, Marek Lasyk, Daniel Myszkowksi, Wlodzimierz Planeta, Marcin Ryczek, Mateusz Skwarczek, Michal Wiatrowski from Poland.
Showing the Polish photos in Cluj-Napoca and those from Cluj-Napoca in Poland the organizers wanted to highlight the similarities between the two cities, revealing a face less touristic in hopes that Romanians and Poles will get to know each other better this way strengthening the friendship between the two cities.
The Polish photographer,Marcin Ryczek, already had a website with Poland unknown, and Ioana Diaconu-Muresan, translator, thought to unite Cluj with Poland through photography under the idea of "unknown".
The exhibition is based on a set of street photographs, black&white and color. The first part, comprising black and white photos shows the reflexive character of the cities and the second, based on color photos shows excitement, dynamism and the characters of the two cities..
The two visions of Marcin Ryczek and Dorel Găină overlapped perfectly.
The most beautiful photograph was definitely the one in which on a river bank covered in snow, the water beside it dark black, stands a man in black and white his traces being seen on the white snow.He feeds the swans. You can discover black swans and black birds, but you can not clearly distinct them. It is a game of Yin Yang which can demonstrate a philosophy.
The event was considered a great success and could be visited until November 1st at the Art Museum of Cluj-Napoca. It will also be held in Krakow.
