Congres 2021

Cristina Bogdan, Vasile Leac

Parcul Cireșari / Bucharest, Romania

A huge football field surrounded by steel fences. Blue tin tribunes, ragged by the years. Sunburn grass. This setting has been chosen by the intergalactic council as meeting point for the congress taking place in 2021 in Bucharest.

On the other side of the fence, some tin statues which sometimes act as swings – or which were used as such many years ago – are the only witnesses to the events.

The blazing heat favors paranormal activity. Gheorghe Iova, poet, theoretician, prepares the ground with prescience.

Divided into 2 groups, we will simulate a 3rd degree meeting, in the larger scheme of a film that could be a documentary.

Hosted by Cristina Bogdan & Vasile Leac.
