10 Reasons to be a Member - #17 h.arta: Need for Space

With „Need for Space“ the Romanian artist collective h.arta (Maria Crista, Anca Gyemant and Rodica Tache) presents a reflective look at their background since the group’s founding in 2001 at the 10 Reasons to be a Member-space of Frankfurter Kunstverein. The group will present documentary material as well as develop a new work that emphasizes their participatory and discourse-orientated method of operating in the context of the post-communist Romania.

Until 2007 h.arta organized an exhibition space in Timisoara and beyond that realised several projects in different other contexts. Thematic priority of their artistic approach is feminism, education, and access to knowledge, the general public as well as a critical view to their immediate political and social surrounding.

Description of the Museum

The Frankfurter Kunstverein is a major national and international institution for contemporary art in Germany.
The Frankfurter Kunstverein is an art centre. Its main goal is to present the viewer with coherently researched exhibitions that are embedded in the
present. Our work is mainly based in the development and production of new art works and projects. Hence our aim is to encourage a critical discussion around “contemporary art pro-duction” and we stress the importance of
regularly organizing artist talks, debates and lectures in order to create an access point to art and its reasons.
