Duo exhibition: Ovidiu Toader & Justin Orvis Steimer

With Ovidiu Toader & Justin Orvis Steimer
Emerging from distinct, yet parallel approaches to material and perception, this exhibition brings together the practices of Justin Orvis Steimer (b. 1981, Colorado, United States) and Ovidiu Toader (b. 1991, Braşov, Romania)—two artists who operate at the threshold of the seen and the unseen; the grounded and the transcendent. What unites them is not a shared aesthetic or subject of research, but a sustained, embodied engagement with material as a site of inquiry—an entry point into systems that often evade straightforward representation.

Tell us about Catinca Tabacaru.

Catinca Tabacaru Gallery was founded in 2014 on the Lower East Side of New York City where it presented a program of emerging international artists. Starting in 2015, the Gallery, along with the newly formed CTG Collective founded by Catinca Tabacaru and artist Rachel Monosov (the gallery’s not-for-profit arm) started a traveling art residency which has had iterations over the past 8 years in Zimbabwe, Canada, Serbia, Nigeria, Finland, Romania and upcoming in Germany. Consistently since 2015, projects in Harare have set international artists in collaboration with local creators. In 2020, the Gallery's headquarters moved to Bucharest seeking to add an Eastern European position to its program and to contribute to Bucharest’s burgeoning art scene. The Gallery also functions as a platform for multidisciplinary projects, with a focus on performative practices.
