About Ghenadie Popescu
Ghenadie Popescu lives and works in Chisinau. During the 90’s the artist performed several actions – bicycle trips, that in the former context of post-soviet Moldova should be perceived as acts of personal will with a strong potential. Today Popescu works as an artist building his discourse with the help of images, objects and texts. Full of irony, his works question the ambiguous space continuously reshaped by the new realities of the reborn state lost in between two different ideological systems.
