Tell us about /SAC.

/SAC Bucharest is a private non-profit initiative positioned as an alternative organism to the organisational trade system and to the public institutional system, with the aim of participating in the (re)contextualisation and the historical update of contemporary independent productions through a set of resources and effective strategies for establishing an unaltered dialogue between the producer and the audience. /SAC works as a transdisciplinary interface of artistic and curatorial collaboration which connects disciplines and services with the purpose of organising the artistic discourse and production, in two different spaces. /SAC @ Berthelot 5 is a context-space of organisation, production, and dissemination in order to establish an authentic relationship with an enganged and informed audience.

What do you have upcoming?

"Fusion:AIR stands at the intersection of biophilia and technophilia, offering an innovative vision of how contemporary art can contribute to overcoming the global ecological crisis. Inspired by the manifesto "Living in the Anthropocene" (Crutzen & Schwägerl, 2011), the exhibition refuses both the utopias of a lost natural paradise and the dystopias of a completely artificial world, proposing instead a territory of interpenetration and hybridization between human and nonhuman, between organic and technology. Participating artists find their inspiration in posthumanist and eco-phenomenological theorists, outlining new relationships between born and built, between nature and culture. Fusion AIR: Biophilia Technophilia brings to the forefront creations that harness the laws of nature and technological innovations, reflecting both the beauty and complexity of the contemporary world." (Raluca Oancea, curator of the exhibition)
