CIPRIAN MURESAN - INCORRIBLE BELIEVERS Ciprian Muresan recontextualizes and deconstructs the works of well known literary and art historical figures. Working conceptually in all media, Muresan has appropriated works by Yves Klein, Eugène Ionesco, and Andrei Tarkovsky. For the gallery’s project room, Muresan will present a new sculptural installation entitled Incorrigible Believers, consisting of miniature wooden church pews made for children, leading up to the display of Muresan’s written ending to Franz Kafka’s unfinished 1926 novel, “The Castle.” Muresan reinterprets the meanings of the original text, and brings up questions regarding ideology and the formation of collective and individual identity.
