Mīrārī

Andrei Fărcășanu

19. 09. 2024 – 27. 10. 2024

The title of the exhibition, Mīrārī, is the Latin word for  “to wonder at”, “to marvel at”, “to gaze at”. Andrei Fărcășanu’s small-format photographs can be imagined as fleeting instants from dreams or traces of distant memories, evoking the emotions experienced at the time. The themes are universal, the natural world being prominent, and so these images have the propensity to likewise trigger emotions in the viewer, emotions emanating from their own memories and experiences. 

The special photo-developing technique of darkroom lith printing enhances the dreamlike, emotional impact of the images, imparting to them a brownish, reddish or pinkish tone.

The exhibition Mīrārī includes selections from several of the artist’s series spanning various periods and features, for the first time, his latest series (2024). There are diptychs and triptychs as well as single photographs.
