see previous editions of the project:
Concept/Programme
The project aims to generate and facilitate cultural and artistic exchange, promoting the mobility and interaction, as a unic way for an artist to enrich his experience. Artists from all countries, including Romania, working in the field of painting, graphic and illustration, interested of various forms of painting intervention, are eligible to apply. Selected artists will have the chance to work on a proposed project, but also to reconsider their current practices. They have the opportunity to directly familiarise themselves with the work of local and international artists, to exchange future projects. The works done within the project will be presented in group exhibition in Bucharest and will be published in a catalogue.
Topic
Variable Dimensions
The idiom variable dimensions is used in a work of art’s identification exclusively when the exact dimensions are not known. The same formula is used when describing a work of art that can be reproduced in multiple dimensions or when the work cannot be measured. A relevant example is an installation composed by several objects. For each of these objects different measurements are needed and this fact can conclude to an ambiguous description of the installation itself.
Figuratively speaking and counting on the effect of the underlying pun, variable dimensions equally leads to the multiple meanings of a word or of an image, as well as to reversing the proportions of its components, to turning the balance and subsequently obtaining new composition formulas and following structures and meanings. Quite obviously, the words in the title of the present project are based on mobility. On one hand, measurements are certainly involved; on the other hand, these measurements are hardly precise.
Artists are invited to meditate on variable dimensions that already contain solutions for artworks that are trying to escape predictable classifications. It’s an invitation to freedom of creation seen not only as a stylistic and technical exploration, but also as a thematic research. One conclusion prevails: creative formulas are practically inexhaustible, due to the inevitable re contextualisation imposed by each artist, beyond the fears of an art history confused by its own theories and value judgements.
How to apply

Data limită de înscriere: 30 mai 2010 (data poştei)
Date generale
Proiectul face parte din seria programelor de rezidente artistice pe care Muzeul National „George Enescu” le desfasoara incepand cu anul 2007 si a caror finalitate o reprezinta incurajarea creatiei contemporane in domeniul muzicii, literaturii si artelor plastice. Organizate sub forma unor ateliere de creatie, rezidentele se desfasoara la sediul Sectiei „Dumitru si Alice Rosetti-Tescanu – George Enescu" si presupun importante participari artistice, nationale si internationale, precum si parteneriate cu diverse institutii: ProHelvetia, Institutul Cultural Roman si Complexul Muzeal „Iulian Antonescu” Bacau.
Concept / Finalitate
Proiectul de fata urmareste sa genereze si sa faciliteze schimburile culturale si artistice, promovand mobilitatea artistilor si interactiunea, ca modalitate unica pentru artist de a-si imbogati experienta. Proiectul este destinat artistilor interesati de diversitatea mediilor de exprimare in pictura, grafica si ilustratie. Se subliniaza importanta procesului de elaborare, ca element determinant în explorarea unor noi modalitati de expresie. In cadrul taberei, artistii rezidenti au posibilitatea de a dezvolta proiecte personale, pornind de la tema propusa, precum si de a colabora cu artisti locali si internationali. Proiectul prevede si realizarea unui catalog cu lucrarile finale.
Tema
Dimensiuni variabile
Expresia dimensiuni variabile se regăseşte exclusiv între notele de identificare ale unei lucrări de artă, atunci cînd nu sunt cunoscute dimensiunile exacte. Aceeaşi expresie se întîlneşte cînd lucrarea descrisă poate fi reprodusă în mai multe dimensiuni sau când piesa nu poate fi măsurată. Un exemplu ilustrativ poate fi o instalaţie formată din mai multe obiecte. Pentru fiecare e nevoie de alte măsurători, lucru care ambiguizează descrierea generală a instalaţiei.
În sens figurat şi mizând pe un joc de un cuvinte, dimensiuni variabile trimite la pluralitatea înţelesurilor unui termen sau a unei imagini, în aceeaşi măsură în care se poate referi la răsturnarea unor proporţii între părţi, obţinând astfel noi formule compoziţionale şi deci, alte structuri şi sensuri. Expresia care dă titlul acestui proiect se bazează, aşa cum se desprinde uşor, pe mobilitate. Pe de o parte se ştie că avem de-a face cu măsurătorile, pe de altă parte aceste măsurători sunt greu de aproximat cât mai aproape de un coeficient exact.
Artiştii sunt invitaţi să mediteze pe seama dimensiunilor variabile care conţin deja soluţia unor lucrări ce încearcă să se sustragă clasificărilor previzibile. Aceasta e o invitaţie la libertatea de creaţie, privită nu doar ca pe o explorare stilistică şi tehnică, dar şi ca o cercetare tematică. De aici concluzia că formulările sunt practic inepuizabile, odată cu recontextualizarea inevitabilă pe care o impune artistul, dincolo de temerile unei istorii a artei confuzionate de propriile sale teorii şi judecăţi de valoare.

Sampling Spaces Project I 1- 21 August 2009 Tescani I Artists & Works
Proiectul Spaţii Citate, desfăşurat în cadrul Taberei Internaţionale de Pictură Tescani 2009, este o nouă etapă în consolidarea demersului de susţinere a creaţiei contemporane, pe care Muzeul Naţional “George Enescu” şi l-a propus în fiecare an, în calitate de organizator. Lansând această oportunitate, ce a captat rapid interesul artiştilor, proiectul a creat o reţea culturală, care reuşeşte să cultive într-un context comun dialogul dintre muzeu şi arta contemporană. Proiectul Spaţii Citate s-a bucurat de o participare diversă, artişti recunoscuţi, cu cariere internaţionale sau artişti mai tineri, a căror activitate acoperă mai multe domenii ale artelor vizuale, incluzând şi curatoriatul. Deopotrivă diverse, lucrările realizate au plecat de la o cercetare vizuală a conceptului de spaţiu ca loc al diferenţei. Abordările artiştilor au mizat atât pe sensurile concrete ale noţiunii, într-o referire foarte generoasă, cât şi pe cele extinse, spaţiul putând fi pretextul investigării memoriei personale, a istoriei recente sau a arhitecturii urbane în tranziţie.
Sampling Spaces Project, developed within the framework of Tescani International Painting Camp 2009, represents the next step in consolidating “George Enescu” National Museum ’s annual initiative to sustain and encourage the contemporary creative field. Launching this opportunity, that rapidly caught artists’ interest, the project created a cultural network which succeeds in cultivating the dialogue between museum and contemporary art on a common ground. Sampling Spaces Project benefited from the participation of a variety of artists, both young or already known artists, interested in working with the wide range of artistic media, including curatorial work.
Although distinctive, the works of art produced within the project proposed a visual analysis of the concept of space as a site of specific difference. In their approaches, artists engaged the concrete meanings of the notion, in a very generous expression and also the extensions that allows the investigation of the personal memory, the recent history or the urban architecture under transition.

Concept / Finalitate
Proiectul de fata urmareste sa genereze si sa faciliteze schimburile culturale si artistice, promovand mobilitatea artistilor si interactiunea, ca modalitate unica pentru artist de a-si imbogati experienta. Proiectul este destinat artistilor interesati de diversitatea mediilor de exprimare in pictura, grafica si ilustratie.

In cadrul taberei, artistii rezidenti au posibilitatea de a dezvolta proiecte personale, pornind de la tema propusa, precum si de a colabora cu artisti locali si internationali. La finalul proiectului este prevazuta organizarea unei expozitii de grup in Bucuresti, precum si realizarea unui catalog.
Tema
Spatii citate
Tema face referire la conceptul general de spatiu, din perspectiva fenomenului de extindere a spatiului urban, fapt ce presupune o reinventare si o recontextualizare a notiunii (de spatiu). A gandi un spatiu inseamna a-l organiza. Tema propune explorarea diferitelor perceptii asupra spatiului, sugerand interpretari deconstructive, abandonarea cadrului, interferarea, s.a., fara sa excluda metafora sau calitatile iluzioniste. Se incurajeaza specularea tuturor tipurilor de tensiuni, reactii si emotii ce apar atunci cand sunt confruntate conventiile istorice de reprezentare si descriere a spatiului, cu perceptiile subiective si arbitrare.
Termeni cheie: imagini manipulate, elemente care subliniaza natura arhitecturala a spatiului, utilizarea unor module figurative sau abstracte care sa sugereze spatii în miscare.
* Sampling (or. engl.)= arrangement of existing visual or audio material with the main intention of playing with the material’s formal characteristics. Rather than quoting from the material, whose sources are often unclear, sampling aims to reformulate it. Extras din Art Now /Uta Grosenick & Burkhard Riemschneider/2005/ Taschen

Extended Deadline: May 30th, 2009

The host institution will provide during the camp (21 days) the complete accommodation, including food and working materials, for 12 selected artists ( 6 from Romania, 6 from abroad). The closing date for submissions is May 30th, 2009 (postmark)
General information
The project is part of a series of residencies programmes developed by The ''George Enescu” National Museum since 2007, intented to stimulate the contemporary creation in the field of music, literature and visual arts. The residences are held at „Dumitru and Alice Rosetti - Tescanu – George Enescu” Department and comprises important artistic involvments, from Romania and abroad, as well as partnerships with different cultural institutions, like ProHelvetia, Romanian Cultural Institut, The ''Iulian Antonescu” Museum, Bacau.
Concept/Programme
The project aims to generate and facilitate cultural and artistic exchange, promoting the mobility and interaction, as a unic way for an artist to enrich his experience. Artists from all countries, including Romania, working in the field of painting, graphic and illustration, interested of various forms of painting intervention, are eligible to apply. Selected artists will have the chance to work on a proposed project, but also to reconsider their current practices. They have the opportunity to directly familiarise themselves with the work of local and international artists, to exchange future projects. The works done within the project will be presented in group exhibition in Bucharest and will be published in a catalogue.
Topic
Sampling spaces
This idea covers the wide notion of space as it is perceived in light of the extension of urban space. The latter implies a new contextualization of what one understands by “space”. To mentally perceive space means to organize it. The current theme offers towards assessment various conceptions of space, suggesting deconstructive interpretations, abandonment of context, interference, and so on, without leaving out metaphors or illusory characteristics. One will encourage speculation of the whole range of tensions and emotional reactions which are brought forth when historical agreement on representation and description of space meets subjective and random perceptions.
Key words: manipulated images, quoted lines, elements emphasizing the architectural nature of space, the usage of figurative or abstract modules suggesting spaces in motion.
* Sampling (Engl.) = arrangement of existing visual or audio material with the main intention of playing with the material’s formal characteristics. Rather than quoting from the material, whose sources are often unclear, sampling aims to reformulate it.

International Experimental Painting Camp – Tescani 2008 - TRANSFER Project I Exhibition I Artists I Statements
TRANSFER / pictura &instalatie / 29 aprilie - 13 mai 2009 / Galeria Sub_Carturesti / Bucuresti
TRANSFER / group exhibition / painting & installation / April 29th - May 13th 2009/ Sub_Carturesti Gallery / Bucharest
The “George Enescu” National Museum (Bucharest) in partnership with The Museum of Art (Bacau) developed the International Experimental Painting Camp – Tescani 2008 - TRANSFER Project, held between 1- 21st August at „Dumitru and Alice Rosetti - Tescanu – George Enescu” department (Tescani/Bacau)। The event gathered 13 artists from Romania, Italy, Spain, UK, Republic of Moldova, USA.
The Transfer Project has related to the contemporary artistic movement as well as it tried to follow the simultaneous and successive participation of the specific working environments, at the level of its elaboration and the very own execution of the works। Thus, painting, photography, drawing, installation, video art could interpolate by changing their effects through pluralistic extensions. The expression and specificity translations, along with the mixed characters, sometimes with an unaccomplished finality - in order to leave open the path of the enunciation hypothesis, were all recaptured in the same idea of dynamism.
Silvia Costin, artist, project coordinator
_______________________
Tescani Painting Camp intends to create a favorable climate for contemporary experimental discourse, in a space really destined for artistic dialogue and intercultural dialogue। The new team from George Enescu National Museum in Bucharest, led by Laura Manolache as general director, comes forth with a pertinent project, coordinated by Silvia Costin: Internatinal Experimental Painting Camp with the theme of Transfer। Many international artists responded to this open call and the selected projects revealed the relevance of experiment as a research method in finding new means of expression, and also the interest for the complex problematic of transfer। Art is a dynamic phenomenon and painting is no longer a conventional media of expression, opening towards video animantion, photography, and installation as visual reasons to repress all prejudice over the limits of contemporary painting. The mediums converge, technical pluralism marks the conceptual factor and the artist interferes liberated by the sistematical cause of bidimensionality. The experiment remaines a necessary exercise that has the power to restore trust to those who are suspecting painting or any other kind of artistic form with the iminence of consumation. The presence and activity of the artists from different cultural areas in Tescani represent a solid proof in favour to the necessity of experimental practice in painting, placing Tescani in the circuit of the contemporary artistic phenomenon.

I comment on “science for the science’s sake”, the pleasure of enjoying yourself through the information exces, the “absolutist” and “allmighty regime” of science. My images use symbols of power or sexual joy, talking about the absurdity of this “regime”, sometimes with irony and sometimes with brutality. For me, the topic of the painting camp, “the transfer”, has meant the way from the real world information processing to the transfiguration into a world in which the meanings are elevated to the surreal. Emanuel Borcescu, artist
Assembly (drawings by Jan Eugen & Maria, his daughter/monotypes/c-prints on canvas mounted on wood frames), 2008, installation / mixed media (views from the show)

Daily round of images, of eyes hurried passing by, of progressive slowness. Form a certain point forward the foil is covering directly the nose, the chin, the cheek of the other. It reveal him without kowing him and most of all without deconspiring him. The crash is limited to the long series of atoms from one point to another and back again. This is the way we are and derive one through another. I have asked Maria if she wants to change one another and meet at one meter and a half in three weeks. Who we are asking ourselves on what is made our rhythm of time. How many are we and in how many pieces can we multiply ourselves during each second.I have built a path that I can remake each time I heavy tread it and paint it in printed ink

Muzeul National „George Enescu” din Bucuresti, in parteneriat cu Muzeul de Arta din Bacau a organizat in perioada 1 – 21 august Tabara Internationala de Pictura Experimentala – Tescani 2008 - Proiectul TRANSFER. Evenimentul s-a desfasurat la sediul Secţiei „Dumitru şi Alice Rosetti-Tescanu - George Enescu” (loc. Tescani, jud. Bacau) reunind 13 artisti din Romania, Marea Britanie, Italia, SUA, Republica Moldova si Spania.
Proiectul TRANSFER s-a raportat la discursul artistic contemporan, în aceeaşi măsură în care, la nivelul elaborării sale prin execuţia în sine a lucrărilor, şi-a propus să urmărească participarea simultană şi succesivă a mediilor specifice de lucru. Astfel, pictura, fotografia, desenul, instalaţia, arta video, s-au putut intercala schimbându-şi efectele prin extensii pluraliste. Translările de expresie şi specificitate, deopotrivă cu caracterele mixte, uneori cu o finalitate neîmplinită – pentru a putea lăsa deschisă calea ipotezelor de formulare, s-au regăsit în aceeaşi idee a dinamismului.

Numeroşi artişti internaţionali au răspuns pozitiv acestei invitaţii deschise, iar proiectele selectate au pus in valoare atât relevanţa experimentului ca mod de căutare şi reperare a altor soluţii vizuale, cât şi interesul pentru complexa problematică a transferului. Arta este un fenomen dinamic, iar pictura nu rămâne un mediu de expresie pur convenţional, deschizându-se către animaţia video, fotografie, instalaţie ca argumente vizuale pentru reprimarea oricărei prejudecăţi asupra limitelor picturii contemporane. Mediile de lucru converg, pluralismul tehnic accentuează factorul conceptual, iar artistul contemporan intervine eliberat de cauza sistematic bidimensională. Experimentul rămâne un exerciţiu necesar care are forţa de a restitui încrederea celor care suspectează pictura şi orice altă formă artistică de iminenţa epuizării. Prezenţa şi activitatea artiştilor din diverse spaţii culturale la Tescani reprezintă un argument solid în favoarea necesităţii unei practici experimentale în pictură, plasând tabăra de la Tescani în circuitul fenomenului artistic contemporan.

The “George Enescu” National Museum (Bucharest) in partnership with The Museum of Art (Bacau) developed the International Experimental Painting Camp – Tescani 2008 - TRANSFER Project, held between 1- 21st August at „Dumitru and Alice Rosetti - Tescanu – George Enescu” department (Tescani/Bacau)। The event gathered 13 artists from Romania, Italy, Spain, UK, Republic of Moldova, USA.
The Transfer Project has related to the contemporary artistic movement as well as it tried to follow the simultaneous and successive participation of the specific working environments, at the level of its elaboration and the very own execution of the works। Thus, painting, photography, drawing, installation, video art could interpolate by changing their effects through pluralistic extensions. The expression and specificity translations, along with the mixed characters, sometimes with an unaccomplished finality - in order to leave open the path of the enunciation hypothesis, were all recaptured in the same idea of dynamism.

Tescani Painting Camp intends to create a favorable climate for contemporary experimental discourse, in a space really destined for artistic dialogue and intercultural dialogue। The new team from George Enescu National Museum in Bucharest, led by Laura Manolache as general director, comes forth with a pertinent project, coordinated by Silvia Costin: Internatinal Experimental Painting Camp with the theme of Transfer। Many international artists responded to this open call and the selected projects revealed the relevance of experiment as a research method in finding new means of expression, and also the interest for the complex problematic of transfer। Art is a dynamic phenomenon and painting is no longer a conventional media of expression, opening towards video animantion, photography, and installation as visual reasons to repress all prejudice over the limits of contemporary painting. The mediums converge, technical pluralism marks the conceptual factor and the artist interferes liberated by the sistematical cause of bidimensionality. The experiment remaines a necessary exercise that has the power to restore trust to those who are suspecting painting or any other kind of artistic form with the iminence of consumation. The presence and activity of the artists from different cultural areas in Tescani represent a solid proof in favour to the necessity of experimental practice in painting, placing Tescani in the circuit of the contemporary artistic phenomenon.

Using language of painting and video animation, I explore border between static image and animated installation. The painting it is an instrument of initiation in the creative process.Recorded integration and disintegration of new materials in different spaces, growing, stagnation and destructive face of nature process, a living sculpture erected by time and energy.

I comment on “science for the science’s sake”, the pleasure of enjoying yourself through the information exces, the “absolutist” and “allmighty regime” of science. My images use symbols of power or sexual joy, talking about the absurdity of this “regime”, sometimes with irony and sometimes with brutality. For me, the topic of the painting camp, “the transfer”, has meant the way from the real world information processing to the transfiguration into a world in which the meanings are elevated to the surreal. Emanuel Borcescu, artist

Daily round of images, of eyes hurried passing by, of progressive slowness. Form a certain point forward the foil is covering directly the nose, the chin, the cheek of the other. It reveal him without kowing him and most of all without deconspiring him. The crash is limited to the long series of atoms from one point to another and back again. This is the way we are and derive one through another. I have asked Maria if she wants to change one another and meet at one meter and a half in three weeks. Who we are asking ourselves on what is made our rhythm of time. How many are we and in how many pieces can we multiply ourselves during each second.I have built a path that I can remake each time I heavy tread it and paint it in printed ink

Within this project I explore how images are received and digested. I begin with a series of “bad” photographs – photos that are usually deleted or discarded as blurred, overexposed or otherwise flawed. Helen Darlington, artist
