Artist Statement for Marian Zidaru
|
|
|
The Zidaru (Marian and Victoria) phenomenon,or cas,as it was called,exploded,after 1990,in Romanian artistic milieu (which was more and more marginalized,in fact), but also in larger spheres.The sensational,the elements of uncontestable surprise,which have constantly backed their manifestations after 1990,have gradually convert into quasi-normality,were transformed into a certain habit.The artists'activism,the regular rhitm of their public appearances exhibitions,performances,publications,production of icons,their perseverance,which was,in a sense,indiferent to the echoes and their nature,remain just as impressive. The routine,the repetition,the constancy can induce a sensation of excess,of fullnes,of lack of measure,but at the same time they institute,complementary,a state of expectation.The presence of the artists Zidaru in Bucharest's landscape has become,in way,normal,natural.Each of their appearances brings a sum of already known elements,which are repetitive,recognizable but are combined in different articulations and syntaxes;their appearances also bring a dose of novelty,well integrated in an ensamble that has stable coordinates.Each new manifestation insinuates a feeling always perceived as comforting,a feeling of stability,of the unchangeable,and never of rupture.Deliberately or not,the strategy of the Zidarus counts on this effect.Their work does not contest,does not mock,does not search,but,with each new exhibition keeps on affirming the assumed religious belief,with an unaltered conviction,and calm (but not resigned) perseverance.
