La inceput a fost pestera. Aici au fost vazute primele lucrari de arta. Au urmat 
constructiile religioase, muzeele, colectiile, galeriile. Este inevitabil ca si 
secolul nostru sa imprime propria marca si sa transforme cadrul de prezentare a 
lucrarilor de arta. Aparitia constructiilor modulare face posibila imaginarea 
unui astfel de cadru. De asemenea, raspandirea cabinelor divers utilitare ce 
servesc individul si în acelasi timp masele, fara intermediari si operatori.

In exercitiul de a gasi acest nou cadru, proiectul expozitional "Artbooth" 
propune spatiului public un nou obiect functional. Acesta, imbinand in el 
modulul si cabina, face posibila itinerarea lucrarilor de arta. Isi innoieste, 
astfel, mereu continutul, si se afla 24 de ore din 24 accesibil privitorului, 
apropriindu-l pe acesta de arta intr-un mod inedit.


Va invitam sa descoperiti cele 3 Artbooth-uri existente in tara, si sa urmariti 
itinerarea a 12 lucrari realizate de Adela Bonat, Alexandra Bodea, Andrei 
Ciurdarescu, Avramut Raluca, Dragos Badita, Eva Buia, Ileana Surducan, Lorena 
Garoiu, Madalina Lazar, Sorin Oncu, Stefan Sava, Stefan Pop.

 

 

In istoria cabinelor (booth, in limba engleza) se regasesc:

,Voting Booth' - cabina automatizata de votare, in care o persoana isi poate 
exercita dreptul de vot in conditii de totala securitate, fara a mai fi nevoie 
de prezenta vreunui observator sau de reprezentantii partidelor politice, 
functionand pe baza unui procedeu automatizat de identificare a electorului si 
inregistrare a votului exprimat.

,Photo booth' - cabina in care o persoana se poate fotografia si isi poate 
colecta singur fotografiile executate, functionand pe baza unui procedeu 
automatizat de filmare si procesare a filmului.

,Phone booth' - cabina de telefonare in care o persoana poate sa apeleze 
telefonic orice interlocutor, fara interventia unei operatoare de telefonie, 
functionand automatizat, pe baza unui aparat operational cu monede, conectat la 
o centrala telefonica.

,Ticket booth' - cabina in care o persoana are posibilitatea sa isi procure un 
bilet, abonament sau cartela pre-platita pentru diverse servicii, functionand 
automatizat pe baza unui aparat operational cu monede.



Ne propunem sa introducem in constiinta comunitatii un nou spatiu proiectat:
,Artbooth' - cabina individualizata de expunere a rezultatului unui act de 
creatie / cabina de arta itineranta.

In the beginning there was a cave to hold the artworks. Thereafter, the 
religious edifices, the museums, the collections, the galleries. It is obviously 
that our century will imprint its own mark in transforming the framework for art 
to be shown. The occurrence of modular constructions makes possible to imagine 
such a framework. In the same way, the spread of various booths to serve the 
individual, as well as the masses, functioning without any intermediaries and 
operators.

We transformed this research for a new framework into a practical exercise: the 
Artbooth. A new functional object, it combines the module and the booth, it 
makes possible the artworks' routing, and, therefore, has a constantly new 
content. It is 24 hours a day accessible to the passerby, for a close and novel 
relationship with the artwork.
 

We invite you to look for the 3 Artbooth-s that can be found in Romania, and to 
follow the routing of 12 artworks created by Adela Bonat, Alexandra Bodea, 
Andrei Ciurdarescu, Avramut Raluca, Dragos Badita, Eva Buia, Ileana Surducan, 
Lorena Garoiu, Luiza Puiu, Madalina Lazar, Sorin Oncu, Stefan Pop.

 

 

In booths' history we identify:

, Voting Booth '- a small enclosed compartment where a voter may register his 
vote in private; it may house some voting machine, or just have a pencil for 
marking a voting slip

, Photo Booth '- a vending machine or modern kiosk that contains an automated, 
usually coin-operated, camera and film processor.

, Phone Booth '- booth for using a telephone, without the intervention of a 
telephone operator, automated coin-operated device.

, Ticket Booth '- an automated coin-operated device where tickets of admission 
are sold.

 



We would like to introduce the Artbooth to the People:
,Artbooth' - individualized booth to exhibit the result of an act of art 
creation / routing art booth.
