Adriana Gheorghe
20.10. — 12.11.2023
→ Sofia



Adriana Gheorghe works with performance, poetry, grave theory and speculative pedagogy, at their margin. Coming from literary studies and art theory, in 2015 she received the Danceweb scholarship at Impulstanz Festival Vienna. Currently, she is a host at Theatres, a new performative space in Bucharest dedicated to interdisciplinarity.

Gheorghe curates processes and constellations researching new modes of transmission and co-existence. She dedicated herself to the same ongoing performative practice constantly reformulated in relation to contexts further researching the connection between performativity (understood as close to ecology, the good co-dependence) and representation (the logic of separation, of difference), both understood as modes of accessing and making reality.

Collaborated with artists Alina Popa, Susanne Grau, Lilach Livne, Kroot Juurak, Mette Edvardsen, Andreea David, Eliza Trefaș a.o. Presented her work at Pact Essen, Brut Viena, ZKM Karlsruhe, Pa-f St Erme, Jaffa Museum Atar, KuLe Berlin, Akademie Schloss Solitude, TanzFaktur Cologne, Norma T Oslo, ICR Berlin, Salonul de proiecte, Atelier 35, Tranzit, Contemporary Art National Museum Bucharest, WASP, Paintbrush Factory Cluj, Matca Artspace Cluj, National Dance Center Bucharest, IOR park, Izvor park etc. She has also collaborated with the Climate Economics & Social Impact (CESI) Journal and PUNCH Press.
