Dan Perjovschi’s Zines. 1992-2015
Curator: Dan Perjovschi
Balamuc
1-31 October, 11:00-19:00 (closed on Mondays)
Balamuc is a generator of publications and thinking through drawing in its own right. This makes for the perfect context of the fanzine retrospective Dan Perjovschi’s Zines. 1992-2015. Started as a cheap substitute for a catalogue and continued as an attachment to his shows, Perjovschi’s fanzine has settled in the educational area. The workshops he holds for 1 to 7 days, during exhibitions he’s attending (Sao Paolo Biennale, Tate Liverpool) or in art schools where he’s invited to teach, are finalized with a fanzine. The retrospective gathers in one place publications copied with indigo paper in Cuba, printed in large resolution with the students from HEAD Geneva, conceptual with artists like Enzo Cucchi and Daniel Knorr in Rome, as a protest strategy with the students from Leipzig, as a resistance with the activists from Iaşi or the ones from Accept Bucharest.
The show presents these xeroxed time capsules, demonstrating that we all have a common language: drawing.
