Where: tête-Schönhauser Allee 161A - Berlin 10435.
Opening: 14. August,7pm.
With the exhibition "A Small, Insignificant Love" Larisa Crunțeanu delves into the emotional universe of the Romanian reality-telenovela Forbidden Love. Spanning over 8 years of weekly releases, Forbidden Lovepresented cases of socially unacceptable romance, crossing boundaries of inter-generational romance, beauty and economic status. In 2015 Crunțeanu auditioned for the show and won the part of Petronela, a spoilt 30 year old struggling to accept her lover repeatedly leaving her for much older women.
Two years later Crunțeanu seeks out her former castmates to re-visit the experienced and performed drama of emotions, trying to negotiate the blurred line between real and fictitious emotions.
“A Small Insignificant Love“ is a multidimensional project, including a feature length film to be released in 2019. For the opening and finissage of her exhibition at tête, Larisa Crunțeanu will screen a work-in-progress version of the film.
