About the exhibition

Artists with Sinti and Roma heritage question concepts of time, space, nature and community. They draw on their unique experiences of Sinti and Roma culture and knowledge, which are inextricably linked to their history of survival and resilience.
All four artists took part in the exhibition FUTUROMA organized by ERIAC at the Venice Biennale in 2019.

The project RomaMoMA Library is part of the exhibition and was initiated as a forum for considering a future Roma Museum of Contemporary Art. The project is co-organized by ERIAC and OFF-Biennale Budapest.

The exhibition was created in collaboration with the European Roma Institute for Arts and Culture (ERIAC) in Berlin.

Art and Healing - A Roma Contribution for Europe

Roma individuals throughout Europe make a tremendous effort to keep the record of a Roma cultural history archived, and events remembered. Through Roma-led activities and assemblies, the Roma continue to build a genealogy of Roma arts and culture. The countercultural machinery remains active through Roma self-representations, self-determinations, and through Roma politics calling out political, economic, and racial oppression. Roma artists imagine a Europe where unveiling truths, beginning with self-remedy, and healing together becomes possible.

The artists share their resources to configure visions for a peaceful and whole Europe. They mitigate the notions of time, space, nature, and community, taking inspiration from their experiences born out of Roma heritage and knowledge, all so utterly connected to the Roma history of survival and resilience, the successful strategies of transgenerational knowledge transfer, and the wise mechanisms of inspiring belonging and building a community, while inviting universal participation.

(Timea Junghaus, director of ERIAC)
