ROMANIAS este un salt in adancul Romaniei contemporane si planurile ei largi de reprezentare prin obiectivul unui grup de fotografi si scriitori de clasa internationala care impreuna pun sub lumina Romania, in timp ce este celebrata aniversarea de 100 ani (1918-2018), dar si 30 de ani de la Revolutie (1989-2019). Aceasta constelatie de voci este curatoriata de catre Florian Ebner, curator sef al departamentului de fotografie, Centre George Pompidou, Paris. in ciuda diferentei metodologice si stilistice, de subiecte si interese, acesti autori impartasesc o viziune a Romaniei care e simbolizata in titlul la plural al albumului: ROMANIAS. Fiindca e dificil sa vorbim de o singura Romanie. Mai multe tari, mai multe realitati par a exista sau coexista in interiorul Romaniei in mod simultan, la fel ca in multe din tarile Europei de Est. Ce descopera acesti cinci fotografi in Romania, care sunt gandurile pe care le proiecteaza viziunea lor particulara asupra acestei tari si in ce fel rezoneaza ea cu aceea a lui Cristian Movila, fotograf roman si fondator al EIDOS, care contribuie el insusi cu un eseu fotografic la aceasta carte? Ce vom descoperi in aceste sase colectii fotografice care, departe de cliseele si ideile primite de-a gata despre Romania, reprezinta o instanta de cercetare a societatii? Aceste reportaje nu se aseamana cu fotografia de stiri sau acoperirea marilor conflicte ori razboaie care au conferit pana la urma celebritatea marcii Magnum. Nu numai ca ele ofera o imagine transversala a Romaniei, ci sunt intesate de indiciile latente pe care doar viitorul le va dezvalui. Florian Ebner, curatorul proiectului Cartea a fost publicata de catre Fundatia EIDOS, Bucuresti, avand un design realizat de catre Sascha Lobe si Pentagram, Londra. Aceasta insoteste expozitia care va calatori, expozitie ce a fost lansata la Muzeul National de Arta al Romaniei in 2019. CONTRIBUITORI
