Description:
Șerban Savu and Atelier Brenda: What Work Is / Romanian Pavilion at Venice Art Biennale 2024. Venice (Italy), April 19, 2024.<br/>Official description: Șerban Savu’s project for the Romanian Pavilion and the New Gallery of the Romanian Cultural Institute consists of paintings and mosaics inspired by Socialist realism. Rather than contest or dismantle them, Savu rearranges the revolutionary tropes – of workers united by political aspirations and the choreographic rhythms of building the future – to capture the unadorned reality of a historical limbo, moments of suspension, perplexity and inertia as microcosms of ampler societal shifts or crises.<br/>At the pavilion, a monumental polyptych-like installation brings together about 40 paintings in a multi-faceted study of a social scene increasingly emptied of shared meaning, where different ideologies erect their scenographies and emit their proclamations. An architectural installation presents scale models displaying mosaics which diverge from the metaphors and tonalities that the medium conveys in religious environments, or in the cosmogonies of labour that Socialist mosaic-making excels in. At the project’s other venue, one of these mosaics is realised at a monumental scale. In addition, the Brussels-based graphic design studio Atelier Brenda respond to Savu’s project via textual and visual works which think through the abstraction of labour as foundation for the definition of a capitalist self.

However, Western countries and the United Nations have warned that a full-scale attack on the city would be a humanitarian disaster.<br/><br/>“The streets of this city echo with the cries of innocent lives, families torn apart, and homes reduced to rubble. \")

When he tried to notify the woman that her vehicle had a flat tire and that she needed to pull over, she became confused and continued driving her car. As the rim of the flat tire came into contact with the road while driving, the car made weird sounds.")
