Group exhibition; organised by: International Experimental Engraving Biennial, curator: O. Nitis, E. Moseneder, M. Raczek; catalogue: "IEEB4"; "Brancovan Palaces" Cultural Center, Mogosoaia, Roumania, 2010-11-20 - 2011-01-30.

"IEEB presents a useful reflection on the current situation of graphic arts with an accent on experiment in the image multiplying techniques and also on the innovation of graphic expression and its place in contemporary times. Following the process of the previous editions, IEEB will present works of serial art made by mechanical, digital reproduction, classic but re-contextualized printing techniques, computer based technologies, video interventions linked to the printing process, printed objects, book objects, installations or video actions/performances of new ways of printing, multiplying, deteriorating or modifying images. Seriality and reproducibility are key notions. Woodcut, metal printing techniques, linocut, serigraphy and so on will receive a special attention only when connected to a conceptual, experimental discourse, with substance and ideas. We promote and sustain the experiment in printmaking, new printing solutions and techniques, the dialogue with the three-dimensional or with the creation of objects through printmaking techniques, serial works, installations with the use of engraving and/or engraved objects. Combinatory techniques, unconventional supports, objects and ready-mades with print interventions, engraving collages, digital prints and other possible printing methods, approaching engraving three-dimensionally, process video-recordings form concept to printed result are all encouraged."
