Concert Urma – Sala Palatului

30 mar

La foarte putin timp dupa concertul de la Ateneul Roman, Urma avea sa sustina concertul de la Sala Palatului. Se stia data, 24 martie, dar mai nimeni nu stia exact ce o sa se intample.  Multi au crezut ca Urma nu are cum sa cante intr-un loc atat de mare, pt ca este o trupa de “underground” (am pus ghilimele pentru ca eu nu consider Urma trupa de underground). Cel putin concertul de la Ateneu, daca nu si modul in care canta sper ca le-a demontat aceasta idee. Zic “sper” nu neaparat pentru ca sunt impreuna cu ei tot timpul, ci pentru ca[...]

Urma, Mani Neumann si fantezii cu blitzuri

28 mar

Dupa cum stiti, sunt alaturi de trupa  Urma de un an de zile, an in care probabil am petrecut mai mult timp cu ei decat cu oricine altcineva.

E o poveste ce a inceput frumos, cand un prieten, a fost intrebat de Mani Gutau daca stie pe cineva care le-ar putea face o fotografie in studio. Trupa Urma avea sa revina dupa pauza de aproximativ 3 ani. Nici macar ei nu stiau ce se va intampla.  Erau 3 oameni care s-au hotarat la o bere sa reinceapa sa cante. Si bine au facut.

Au ajuns la mine in studio datorita prietenului sus-mentionat pentru acea sesiune foto.

Concert Urma – Ateneul Roman

25 mar

Ateneul Roman este, din punctul meu de vedere, singurul loc din Bucuresti care pastreaza acel ceva ce a disparut din acest oras paralelipipedic si lipsit de gust. Prezenta lui e o marturie, o dovada ca a existat viata in aceasta zona etern defavorizata, umbrit un pic de atentia scazuta ce i se acorda si de selectia destul de stricta a evenimentelor ce au loc in aceasta cladire minunata.

Primul contact cu Ateneul a fost prin clasa a 2-a. A fost o perioada in care mergeam in fiecare vineri impreuna cu bunicul meu, iar acea sala mare, rotunda, cu o acustica perfecta si cu scaune rosii in care rasunau viorile lui Paganini mi-a ramas placut imprimata in memorie.

Timisoara And Cluj – Urma

13 mar

We’re back in February, just came to Bucharest after my exhibition in Verona. We left for Timisoara where Urma would have their concert, followed by Cluj on the second day.

The winter passed and our route was right on the freshly repaired road to Sibiu. When we got to Dealul Negru I thought we made a wrong turn and got to some historical site with trenches from the second world war. I’m not kidding, there were 40 cm deep craters all [...]

Long Time No See & Sneak Peak Into The Future Posts

03 mar

I know, I know, I’ve been busy, didn’t post in a while.  I needed a little break. Still need it now, but at least I got some time off from bad things that were happening when I thought nothing else could go wrong.

3 trips to Verona for the exhibition, my first exhibition there to be more precise. Some photos from the exhibition can be seen here. It was good, the people liked my work and there should be a couple more exhibitions on the way.

While things seemed to be ok, reality was a little different. That actually being the reason for this break. Before I left for London, disaster struck and forced me to use the services of a well known data recovery company that I didn’t want to use. Like all things in life that seem to be connected, when one thing goes wrong, many others follow and support is not there where you think it is. The winter was a bliss for those who love it, but for me, Christmas is just beginning to show up. New year’s eve also.

After nearly 2 months away from home and unfinished work piling up, we left for Freiburg, where Urma held their live performance during the Jawala Festival. I think there were close to 900 people for the concert and they had a good time. And not just young people. There were people of all ages, and I liked that. I was for the first time in Germany and I’ll surely return. There’s lots to be seen and the first impression was great. Lots of places on the list.

Last trip to Verona, which ended just yesterday actually had some skiing in it. Skiing was a vital occupation of mine, which had a critical pause when I broke my knee in April 2008 (torn ACL). That marked the time when I really started to study photography which slowly became what it is now, so I guess it’s true that everything has a meaning in life. But now it’s clear to me. Once you have it in you, you can’t rest apart from it for [...]
