ICR Romanian Cultural Institute London

Show your inner Romanian!

Show your inner Romanian! Come and show the whole wide world that Romanians are also "somebody" in London! Come, bring your family and friends and take part in a unique artistic event that will show the world who we are.

Sunday 2 September 2007, at 15.00, Romanian artist Matei Bejenaru, from Iasi, invites us all to the Thames riverside in front of the Tate Modern (across the river from St Paul's Cathedral). We can be all together as a community and, for a minute, think of Romania and all our friends and loved ones from home, people whom we wish were here.

This art event, part of the "Impreuna / Together" project, will be documented through photographs and by the editing of a short documentary film. These will be presented to the London audience, as well as to the wide world, within Tate Modern, on 8 and 9 September 2007.

Matei Bejenaru is an artist and teaches photography and video at the Arts University in Iasi, Romania. In recent years his art projects have concentrated on the situation of Romanians who live and work abroad.

"Impreuna/Together" is a project by Tate Modern London in collaboration with the Romanian Cultural Institute in London. With thanks for their support to the Romanian Cultural Centre London, Romanca Society, Romani in UK, Romani-Online, Diaspora Romaneasca.
