Discover the stories of the women who were Constantin Brâncuși’s friends, lovers, and muses, and explore how they shaped the life and work of one of the twentieth century’s greatest sculptors.

Curated by Doina Lemny, the exhibition examines the relationships that inspired Brâncuși’s artistic vision and reveals how the faces and personalities of these remarkable women found expression in his sculptures, photographs, and films.

Presented for the first time worldwide, the exhibition brings together 40 original photographs by Brâncuși, recently discovered in the collection of the University of Art and Design in Cluj-Napoca. Documents and personal objects once belonging to the artist’s muses complete the exhibition, offering a fresh perspective on Brâncuși as the world marks the 150th anniversary of his birth.

Heatwaves, floods, drought, blizzards, and hailstorms are not new phenomena. For a long time, however, they were regarded as exceptions. Today, they are increasingly becoming part of our everyday reality. What were once isolated events have evolved into risks we are learning to live with.

The exhibition The New Climate. Are We Ready? is built around a simple paradox: we know more about extreme weather than ever before, yet this knowledge rarely translates into concrete action when we are actually confronted with such events.

Through interactive experiences and simulations inspired by real-life situations, visitors are challenged to discover, in a hands-on way, how prepared they truly are to face the challenges posed by extreme weather. The goal is to foster a genuine, practical understanding of today’s climate-related risks, not just a theoretical one.

Beyond the big screen, Cristian Mungiu’s creative universe unfolds through a series of photographs taken during the research and location scouting for Fjord, winner of the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. The photographs capture moments of reflection and landscapes that captivated the director and accompanied his creative process, forming an intimate visual narrative shaped by encounters, observations, and memories. Each image carries a story, a moment, or a conversation, transforming the making of Fjord into a creative journey as compelling as the film itself.

The exhibition invites visitors behind the scenes of an exceptional creative process and offers a rare opportunity to see the world through the eyes of one of Romania’s most acclaimed filmmakers.

What does the lunch break reveal about the way we live? The exhibition explores the paradoxes of modern life, transforming an everyday ritual into a reflection on time, work, and the joy of living.

Inspired by Edenred’s mission to promote the lunch break, the project becomes a platform for cultural reflection on how we relate to the pace of contemporary life and to the small moments of pause that shape our daily routines. Through installations unfolding across two contrasting spaces, visitors are invited on a Lunch Safari, a journey through the habits, contradictions, and rituals that define Romanians’ relationship with time, work, and food.

The exhibition paints a portrait of Romania today, caught between constant haste and a zest for life, while offering a new perspective on lunch: not simply as a meal, but as a state of mind and an essential anchor of well-being.
