Ciprian Mureșan
(1977, Dej, România - lives and works in Cluj, România)
Co-editor of VERSION artist run magazine. From 2005 editor of IDEA art + society magazine.
Born in communist Romania in 1977, Mureşan was 12 during the Revolution of 1989, when the Eastern Bloc collapsed; he came of age in the ensuing period of “catch-up modernization,” which heralded Romania’s shaky transition to capitalism. The last two decades, spent in Cluj, where he lives and works, have fostered in him both a sense of disillusionment with his country’s institutionalized systems of misinformation and a healthy sense of irony.
