This book encapsulates five years of the Salonul de proiecte curatorial programme, whose mission was to foster the production of contemporary art in Romania and the Republic of Moldova. The Open Call programme was the driving force behind this project, against the precarious backdrop of a local art scene riven by a lack of resources or any infrastructure dedicated to artists. This publication is an important collection of works shown over the course of the eight exhibitions that resulted from the annual calls for projects; it is a relevant archive of the recent history of Romanian art, as well as a useful platform for future research projects.
