A finger prick in a sweet dream

Stroboskop and Przyszla Niedoszła (PL), in collaboration with MATCA Artspace (RO), presents the pop-up exhibition, A finger prick in a sweet dream, featuring the work of four artists trained in Cluj(RO): Andriana Oborocean, Matei Toșa, Paul Robaș and Alexandra Mocan. The exhibition is the result of a more extensive collaboration initiated by MATCA, The Alternative Exchange. Shaped by the need to form alternatives that facilitate the visibility and mobility of Romanian and international artists, through mutual exposure, exchange of experiences and cooperative learning methods, the project was inspired by the need for solidarity with the broader artist-run scene, and the general needs of artists who benefit from exhibitions and meetings, and other opportunities which occur in such spaces. The Alternative Exchange is a collaboration between six artist-run initiatives from international cities: 5533 - Istanbul, Stroboskop + Przyszła Niedoszła - Warsaw, Funnel - Belgrade, Aether - Sofia, Heerz Tooya - Veliko Tarnovo, and NEW NOW - Frankfurt.
