Dacia 1300 My Generation. Interview with Stefan Constantinescu


I was born in '68 as the Dacia (cars produced in Romania under communism, ed.) That of Dacia is the story of people who lived in my building. It il simbolo del progresso e della libertà: si è costruita per 37 anni e ogni anno usciva un nuovo modello praticamente identico al precedente. Mi sembra una metafora efficace per la società che non cambia, anche se la gente prova sempre un nuovo modello.

Ş tefan Constantinescu, artista rumeno che vive tra Stoccolma e Bucarest, è stato scelto per rappresentare la Romania alla Biennale di Venezia. Due le opere esposte in laguna fino al 22 novembre: i video 'Troleibuzul 92' e 'Passagen'. Lo incontriamo in uno dei caffè storici della capitale rumena, il Caru cu Bere, dove ci mostra uno dei suoi ultimi lavori, 'The Golden Age for children', un libro pop-up which goes through pictures, captions and curiosity of the Ceausescu era, which " party members called the golden age .


It focuses on the image of a building to pieces and tells a story:

That earthquake in Bucharest is a tragi-comic story. In this building, on the ground floor, there was a store of Dacia. To make room for a car, they had removed a pillar. When there was an earthquake in 1977, the building collapsed and 1,578 people have died.


Did you take part the revolution of 1989?

During the revolution I was working for the government in a graphic design studio for propaganda. It was the only way to work with art. On the night of December 20 they called me to build two billboards. In the first perioso have been more active and I thought one of the most beautiful moments of my life, but then, thinking it was all a manipulation ...


In your book come together personal memories and historical reconstructions. We explain this choice of style?

I think the artist's role is to tell the stories he knows. Do not invent anything, the reality gives already so much in itself. And when you talk about your personal history, the stories are not just yours, but those of your generation.


Why are you emigrated to Sweden?

My father lived in Sweden since 88, my mother and my brother from '90. I wanted to stay in Romania, but after three years of university, I realized that I would have no chance here as an artist, drinking vodka and only ever talking about politics in the cafes. It in Sweden that I learned to make films and video.


What do you think intolerance towards Romanians in Italy?

do not know the subject well, but immigration, alien, on the other are always downloaded the faults. Not only in Italy. I am a stranger myself. The Romanian Ministry of Culture did not want you to Venice Troleibuzul 92 because my video depicts a man on the bus talking on the phone with his girlfriend and tells her a bitch, there are between 20 minutes and I'll kill you, tell me who he was speaking, tell me (initially in the video the girl's phone is busy, ed.) He calls it 4 times. It 'an act obsessive, hard and mechanical. They did not want to take him to Venice because the reputation of Romanians in Italy is not good and are investing so much money to change it. But in reality it is a situation that could have happened anywhere. Women are discharged on the faults as migration, even in Sweden, where half of the Parliament are women.


plans for the future?

Another pop-up book and a work composed of seven short films that revolve around many pairs. Will probably be called '7 Steps To Heaven '.

Renew License Aaa Columbus Ohio

The answer is blowing in the wind


Until now, Romania has represented the Eldorado for small and medium Italian enterprises in the textiles, footwear and mechanical or for major banking groups in the peninsula, all Sanpaolo and UniCredit, the country could in future become an important investment opportunity for entrepreneurs working in the field of renewable energy. After years of economic growth among the highest in Europe, including Romania is affected by the crisis, and the interchange with Italy is no longer growing as it once was, indeed, "from February Italian investments are firm," stated Institute Foreign Trade (ICE) in Bucharest. Nevertheless, Romania has in the field of green energy potential is still unexplored. Of a certain size is only the production of hydroelectric power. In this area stands the Padua-based company Espe, since 2004 that manages a number of facilities in the district of Maramures in the north of the country (the company is also very active in Puglia, has just opened a solar farm of 4.5 MW in Salento and has offices in Molfetta).

Romania, like other EU countries must comply with European regulations on environmental protection - the famous policy of 'twenty percent' - and is to come to terms with the need to reduce the gap that separates it from other EU members. The government is trying to run for cover. "I think at the moment, Romania has the best legislation in Europe on renewables. [...] Up to 2015 there is a double 'certificate green ', so if you build today, you can practically operate with a double incentive to 2015, "said Rod Christie, president of General Electric Energy for Eastern Europe and Russia, in an interview with the magazine on-line EurActive.com. Some large Italian companies have sensed the business, planning large investments. Foremost Enel, already one of the main distributors of electricity in the country with a market share of 30%, which plans to invest € 7 billion in renewable energy 2012. They began to move also Sorgenia group company De Benedetti, and Edison. Entrambe hanno pronti piani di investimento nel campo dell'eolico, che, secondo gli analisti, insieme alle biomasse è il settore in cui la Romania ha le maggiori possibilità di crescita, anche se l'European Wind Energy Association lamenta i troppi ostacoli amministrativi e tecnici per l'allaccio alla rete.

Un'altra opportunità estremamente interessante è rappresentata dai fondi strutturali europei che faranno affluire verso la Romania, nel periodo 2007-2013, un po' meno di 30 miliardi di euro, di cui circa 637 milioni destinati al sett ore ambiente, efficienza and renewable energy. The ICE office in Bucharest has prepared an information desk on the subject, and some Italian consulting firms are already at work: the Studio Gianfelice, for example, which has offices in Timisoara and Bucharest, goals preferred by our own entrepreneurs. There are two channels through which Italian companies can make use of EU funds: by participating directly or through invitations to tenders conducted by the winning companies. They will know our businesses meet the challenge?

a story of homophobia in the park Cismigiu

succcesso I know that last night? I took a walk with a friend to Cismigiu. Should have been a short walk, so I did not bring either the portfolio nor the documents. At Cismigiu there was a folk concert, we approached and we were. It 'got a young transsexual with provocative clothing and make that has attracted the attention of many people. Suddenly a man approached aggressively, a police officer is taking the side of man intrvenuto aggressive, saying the trans to dance a little 'further away from the stage. La giovane trans è rimasta dov'era (ballava e non faceva niente di male a nessuno). L'uomo ha iniziato a strattonarla, sono intervenuto, gli ho tirato via le mani di dosso dalla trans e la polizia ha preso me e la trans e ci ha portato fuori dalla folla (il poliziotto mi teneva con forza il braccio sinistro dietro la schiena, nonostante non avessi fatto il minimo tentativo di resistenza). A quel punto ho pensato che ci avrebbero picchiato in un angolo buio del parco, per fortuna la mia amica è intervenuta e ci hanno lasciato. La trans si è presa un calcio alla pancia o ai genitali, non ho visto bene.

Tmj Dysfunction From Having Braces

Lume Lume, Lume Soro

" of street children there were during the Ceausescu regime, only then you could not see why they went out alone at night, otherwise the police would have arrested them." So says Sorina Friars, a psychologist, who worked from 2001 to 2008 with the Foundation Parada, the NGO founded in 1996 in Bucharest by the French-Algerian clown Miloud Oukili and made famous by a film by Marco Pontecorvo came out last fall. Insegnado circus art to 'vagabonds' in Bucharest, the foundation has managed to rip off the street, hundreds of children and young people.

sprout from anything, often holding a plastic bag that lead to the mouth frequently to sniff a substance that penetrating odor and immediately gives the head, the Aurolac (hence the name by which they are usually called 'aurolaci' ). It is an economical paint, they pay a bit 'in the bag and sniff for a moment to forget the pangs of hunger and cold.

Invisibility is in the nature of life that condocuno, but the phenomenon is less common than we in the West. An estimate published quanche days ago by an NGO talks about 1270 children are currently residents in the streets of the capital, "but in the past, after the revolution and until the early of this decade, were also 5000 ", says the association. Stating: "they are called street children, but among them there are runaway children who have now become adults and have children."

The path that brought them into the street is similar but not identical. The common denominator is poverty and violence, large families, the counselor continues, "have lost their homes to debt. Many are from the country and especially from Moldova, one of the poorest areas of the country. As Mihai, who is 20 years old and after a childhood on the streets has been taken into care by Catholic institutions and now studies architecture. He told of the violence suffered at home by his father, the main reason that prompted him to seek refuge in the street. "Others fled the orphanages, where they suffered violence by older boys. In Bucharest live in groups, each with a well-defined, "adds the Friars.

are commonly associated with sewers, but not really live in the sewers but in culverts that through huge pipes carry hot water in apartments in the capital. Underground labyrinth built during the years of Communist dictatorship and now is a stay warm during the cold winters in Romania. In the summer outdoors in the parks are, hence also the label 'boskettari', although the term in the collective imagination of the inhabitants of Bucharest is linked to practices of prostitution, then that is one of the devices with which street children procure the money. "Alin is little more than a child has contracted HIV from a sexual relationship with a foreign sex tourists," he tells the Friars. It concludes: "Not everyone lives down the street. One of them live with their parents, that day led them to beg or to wash windshields at intersections. The government and the municipality does not do almost anything, spend a monthly benefit to families is slight. The only concrete and active NGOs in this field. "

Journey to the Center of the Earth: the Mines of Unirea Slanic-Prahova


Saturday, the 13th of June, I've been with the children and the volunteers of Salvati Copiii to one of the most amazing places I've ever been: The Mine Unirea of Slanic-Prahova. 200-250 meters in the hearth of the Earth, where miners extracted salt for about 30 years (1938-1970), before the site was transformed in a touristic attraction.

Beeing 200 meters above the ground, in a cave with a ceiling at least 100 meters high, brings you back to some kind of pre-natal age. The silence, the echos of the joyful screams of the babies, the darkness, the closeness to the hearth of the Mother Earth and the huge walls that seem protecting you from the external dangerous world, make you regress to some kind of peacefull collective childhood. The Unirea Salt Mines are a sort of universal playground. It's not a case if there are playgrounds for children, football and tennis playgrounds and some other amuzement-park-like attractions.

In the first huge room after the entrance, on the ceiling you can notice a hammer and sickle in a red circle, and a huge flourescent cross nearby one of the walls, built I think in the years after the revolution.




The hammer and sickle brought to my mind pictures of miners, miners working hard, miners dying, miners going to Bucharest to suppress the revolts that took place under the 'Iliescu regime' after the 'democratic' revolution of December 1989.


I tried to imagine how Romanian tourists could feel in the 70's and 80's at Slanic-Prahova, when the country was under the control of the Securitate and the fear imprisoned people in a cage of terror. There, in that surreal atmosphere, every whispered word, amplified and distorted by the echo, could turn into a scream of pain and revolt.

Going to Unirea Salt Mines, descending to the center of the Earth, is a regressing trip to a collective eternal childhood and a surreal journey in the past of to country.

How Many Discs Come With Flight Simulator X



Wednesday, June 3. I wanted to test the historical knowledge of the volunteers (all students) of Save the Children that do an Italian course. It the twentieth anniversary of the repression of demonstrations in Tiananmen Square and the beginning of the lesson m Ostrand the famous photo of the guy with the shopping bags in hand stopping by just a row of tanks. 13 None of these has the slightest idea what he's talking about.

Giovedì 4 giugno. Un editoriale del quotidiano Adevărul, “Democrazia significa votare”, termina lanciando un monito: “Chi può garantire che la nuova era democratica sia eterna?” Inizio a chiedere alle mie colleghe se si recheranno o no alle urne. Su 7 solo due sono indecise, le altre sono sicure che non ci andranno. La più eloquente giustifica la sua scelta scrivendo sulla mia agendina una serie di aggettivi dedicati ai politici rumeni. Traduco letteralmente: “scrocconi, marioli, criminali, miserabili, corrotti, mafiosi e puttanieri”. Per sondare le cause della disillusione dei Romania (which I think is limited to the few I know) to politics, I send to 27 friends and acquaintances, aged between 18 and 35 years and with a good education, an email with the following questions: "'ll still vote? If not, why? What is the most urgent problem in Romania? Do you think the politicians are solving? You have confidence in the Romanian democracy? And in the EU? Did you expect more from European integration? You still want to change the world? If so, how do you do if you go to vote? "

Friday, June 5. Evenimentul Zilei read. On the front page, the news that a strange organization is collecting votes from students on behalf of the Social Democratic Party / ex-communist, paying her the misery of 30 (just over € 7, better than in Bulgaria, where they give you at least 20-25. In Italy? to the peninsula we have only an estimate: in Naples, Policy 2001, the section of a major political party distributing dough and oil). As evidence, the usual photo taken with the phone for the ballot 'regular' out. Holland in the open and inclusive the far right gets a success 'unexpected', riding just happened spectrum of immigration. Meanwhile in the evening I received only 4 replies, plus a collection verbally in the afternoon. Sometimes I think that in Romania, when you a question that relates to politics, everyone is still as frightened at the time of the notorious Securitate.

Saturday, June 6. I am not getting more responses, the mini survey was a flop. Do not be discouraged, at least what they told me that the 5 is interesting: my friends are Europeans, but they expected that the Europeans were more "friendly" with the Romanians and not treat them as citizens "second class". Mistrust in the domestic political system is greater than that in continental institutions. Among the major ills of the country, they are also the causes of the climate of mistrust, conflict and corruption appear of interest. Dana writes in an excellent Italian: "There are so 'many ... [Issues] The low level of consumption; the quality of life, the enormous differences between social classes, the universal certainty that no matter what you know but who you know, that everything can be bought with money, and especially with a good relationship. " Reflection on the sidelines: bad government, playing into the hands of the rulers, which they use to remove people's disgust with politics and become more of a caste. Returning home, I read on the bus several times that voting shall be punished with the prison. I wonder how you can vote multiple times ?

Sunday, June 7. Revealed the secret, everything is possible in Romania. Here's how: the electoral law for the European can vote outside the polling station are member of. The TV did not speak anything but 'holiday campaign,' minibus carrying seats in different cities who, in exchange for money, vote twice. The police has prepared and is shielded from checkpoints across the country. At the polls closed, the percentage of votes on quettro speak of a Romanian who went to the polls. I do not know if the calculation have been considered as the 'holiday election'. I receive another email, 6 out of 27 responses. For the record, the first data state that the two governing parties, the PDL of President Basescu and the PSD, have obtained a nearly identical percentage of just over 30%. Seems not to interest almost anyone.

Aneurysm In My Stomach

The state of democracy in Romania and the European elections of Tricarico Tarantolati

Three weeks ago I started a course of Italian for the volunteers of Save the Children. Yesterday I started the lesson showing to 10-15 young people (all girls and one guy), aged between 16 and 30, the famous picture of the Chinise guy that stopped the tanks in Tiananmen Square in Beijin. I asked the volunteers what happened there 20 years ago.

No one knew. I'm afraid that in a while no one will remember Ceausescu anymore, or will regret his era. Like in Italy with Mussolini.

Second source of inspiration: the past days I asked to 7 Romanian collegues (women aged 30-55) whether they were going to vote or not for the European Parliament. Only 2 of them were undecided, the others were sure that they were not going to vote.

So today I invented a small questionnaire and I sent it to 23 young Romanian friends.

I asked them:
1) are you going to vote on Sunday for the European Parliament?
2) If not, why?
3) In your opinion, what is the most urgent problem in Romania? Are the politicians doind anything for that?
4) What is your degree of trust in the Romanian democracy? (High, medium, low)
5) What is your degree of trust in the EU? The same, high, medium, low
6) Did you expect more from the European integration?
7) Do you still want to change the world? If you're not going to vote, how do you think you'll be able to transform the reality around you?

I'm waiting for the results. I think some of them will not answer cause here people don't talk easily about these kink of subjects. Ceausescu's heritage.

I'm worried about the state of democracy in Italy, and I see that here things are not so different, and as well in the Civilized Holland, where, the extreme right will Have an "unexpected" success at these European elections. I'm worried the Crises That Could lead Europe back in the past, in Italy that's Already Happening. An editorial of

Adevarul published today, "democratic vot inseamna" (means-vote democracy), says: "I Cine poate ca Garanta Noua este eternal democratic age?"

What Happens When You Have An Optical Migraine

The concert in Bucharest

the background of the stage written in big "Hello Italy. Tonight, at the Revolution Square, in the Italian Festival ( http://www.festivalitalian.ro/ ) can caters to the Embassy, \u200b\u200bTrade Institute abroad and the Italian Cultural Institute as part of celebrations for June 2, they played the "Tarantolati of Tricarico ( www.tarantolatiditricarico.org ).

Bello, I seemed to be at or a tammorra Carpino. We danced in a surreal atmosphere in a square half-empty, where life has taken twenty years ago the alleged Romanian revolution, tarantella and pinched. And I have known young Italians nice, interesting and intelligent, a translator who teaches at a private school, a colleague of Pavia and a PhD student who is here for research.

I looked around to see who are my countrymen in Bucharest. The conversation has moved on this issue, however, in modo naturale. Che storie di merda ho sentito, uomini che pretendono di pagare traduttrici due soldi, e di volersele anche scopare. Feste in privè con mignotte della borghesia italiana di Bucarest. Italiani che vanno nei paesini per comprare sesso a due soldi e poi vantarsene in internet. Signor nessuno/frustrati/senza 'na lira in Italia e qui, arrivati ad accumulare piccole fortune non si sa come, si credono i re del mondo. Del resto, con un Presidente del Consiglio che dà un simile esempio...

"C'è un Italia migliore", direbbe Nichi vendola, come i miei interlocutori di stasera. Per fortuna.

Will A Size 6.5 Ring Fit On A Size 7 Finger

"we have time to TIMP "de Octavian Paler

"Avem timp" de Octavian Paler


We have time for all.
to sleep, I ran into right and left to regret that I
wrong and being wrong again
to judge others and we absolve ourselves
have time to read and write,
to correct what I wrote, to regret what I wrote,
have time to make plans and do not respect them,
have time to make illusions and gamble through their ashes later.

We have time for ambitions and diseases
to blame and details,
have time to chase away the ads, or some accident, we
along questions for us to postpone the answers, we have time to crush a dream
to reinvent it, we have time to make friends,
lose to them, have time to learn our lessons and look after them, why we
time to receive gifts and not understand them. We have time for all.

is not only time for a little tenderness. When we do this
and we die.

I learned some things in life that we share with you!
I learned that you can not make someone love you.
All you can do is be loved. The rest ... depends on the others. I learned that no matter
I would care, Others might not care.
I learned that it takes years to gain confidence and only a few seconds to lose it
. I learned that no matter what you have in life but who you
. I learned that you're doing and help your charm
Then about 15 minutes, but you'd better know something. I learned that you should not compare yourself
what others can do better But what can you do
I learned that no matter what happens to people Ci
matter what I can do to solve

I learned that no matter how you cut
Everything has two sides

I learned that I have to leave the loved ones with warm words
It could be the last time you see

I learned that you can last long
After you said you can not

I learned that heroes are those who do what is right, regardless of the consequences when it comes


I learned that there are people who love you But
I know it does not look
I learned that when I'm upset right to be angry but do not have a right to be
and bad

I learned that true friendship continues to exist even in remote
And that goes for true love I
learned that if someone does not love you like you like you does not mean
loves you with all my heart. I learned that no matter how good a friend is
anyway it will hurt from time to time And you must forgive him for that
.

I learned that it is not always enough to be forgiven by others
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself
I learned that no matter how much you suffer,
world will not stop running because of your pain.

I learned that the past and circumstances may influence personality

But YOU are responsible for what you become
I learned that if two people argue, does not mean they do not love
And any argument that is not does not prove that they love.
I learned that sometimes you have to put the person first
And his actions

I learned that two people can look
same thing and see something totally different
I learned that regardless of the consequences
Those who are honest with themselves
get farther in life you
I learned that life can be changed in a few hours
by people who do not even know.

I learned that when you think nu mai ai nimic de dat
Cand te striga un prieten vei gasi puterea de a-l ajuta.

Am invatat ca scrisul
Ca si vorbitul
Poate linisti durerile sufletesti

Am invatat ca oamenii la care tii cel mai mult
Iti sunt luati prea repede ...

Am invatat ca este prea greu sa-ti dai seama
Unde sa tragi linie intre a fi amabil, a nu rani oamenii si a-ti
sustine parerile.

Am invatat sa iubesc
Ca sa pot sa fiu iubit .

Monster Energy Causes Constipation

money and love leading in Italy



Un'ossessione per il denaro sembra aver colmato il vuoto di values \u200b\u200bresulted from the revolution of 1989. In metrolitana observe men who count small bunches of notes. Everywhere I take snippets of conversations in which pitted figures and prices. Even the campaign for the European sees one of the historical parties, GNP, coined a slogan that disturbs my modesty petty bourgeois, "Bani pentru Roma Ani. Europen Bani "(money for Romanian, European money) read the posters alluding to European structural funds.

understand this obsession for the 'bani' (pronounced 'bath', the 'i' is the final set), literally the villages of leu, practically the term commonly used to indicate the money. I understand going to the market or supermarket, comparing prices similar to Italian and trying to imagine the effort to make ends meet with salaries that are the third-fourth part of our.

primary passion for the idol of idols, which in hindsight more than a passion is a necessity, is the main reason so many Romanians to leave familiar smells and tastes to try his luck in Italy.

Alin, my colleague, was clear. He returned less than one year Roma and has plans to start in September. I asked him why, given that in Italy, he graduated, most likely will continue to be a carpenter. He said bluntly: "earning € 350 a month and I pay 200 for the room in which I live with my wife!" And Alin's salary is not among the lowest.

Even for those who have returned after a nest egg put aside, life is not easy: Cristian, fifties, has lived seven years in the Veneto. After returning, he opened a small construction company that is struggling to find good jobs, however, given the political patronage system that reigns here.

Non tutti partono spinti da esigenze economiche. Ramona sta per andare a Roma per il matrimonio di sua sorella e Rosario, calabrese. Entrambi informatici, si sono incontrati anni fa durante un corso di formazione.

Di solito le esperienze che i rumeni si portano indietro dall'Italia sono positive. Tutti parlano di una buona accoglienza, di buone condizioni di vita e di persone disponibili e con cui hanno stretto legami. Solo in un caso, parlando con Dominique, la cui mamma fa la badante vicino Piacenza, ho sentito tristezza nei silenzi tra le parole. Ma la storia di Dominique parla di altro, non della vita di chi parte ma del dramma di chi resta, che accomuna una generazione di giovani rumeni: Diana, ad esempio, ha 17 anni e vive sola con i nonni in un paesino vicino Focşani mentre i genitori lavorano alle porte di Milano; la sua amica Oana ne venti, il padre e i fratelli a Roma e qui in Romania solo sua madre.

I viaggi che dalla Romania portano nelle città italiane scaturiscono dall'impellenza reale e stringente di far fronte alla vita di tutti i giorni, di pagare affitto e bollette, anche se poi il bisogno si tinged desiseri, hopes, dreams, linguistic affinities and heart. I look at counting piles of notes faded and I think the stories that tell us, if only they could talk.
