Anca Poterașu Gallery is a contemporary art gallery established in 2011, Bucharest, aiming to support contemporary Romanian artists. The gallery shows both well established and young artists, active in various media – painting, drawing, art-objects, installation, photography and video-art.
The exhibition programme is centered on curatorial practices that encourages collaborations with art practitioners from across the country and from all over the world. In 2015, the gallery initiated an international exhibition residency programme – Plantelor 58 – for artists and curators from around the world, establishing a sustainable platform for cooperation.
Anca Poterasu Gallery aims to further develop the international visibility of its artists through cooperation with other xgalleries and institutions. Based on the previous success of the curatorial project space programme, run between 2018-2019 in the Spinnerei, Leipzig, the gallery continues to develop the concept of the “nomad gallery”, intending to open different project spaces around Europe.

Fragments of Poetic Nature is Iulian Bisericaru’s solo exhibition, presenting a new series of charcoal drawings centered on Gold Corporation and its operations surrounding Roșia Montană, Romania. Bisericaru’s practice consistently engages with ecology, architecture, and the transformation of landscapes. In this exhibition, his recent works introduce a more poetic dimension, where gestures of fragility and erosion coexist with the political tensions embedded in a contested terrain. This poetic dimension does not soften the subject matter but rather sharpens its affective resonance, allowing the viewer to encounter the landscape as both a material reality and a space of reflection.
