Opened in May 2011 in a former inn dating from the turn of the last century, Anca Poterașu Gallery is a space dedicated to recent and contemporary art that focuses on supporting and promoting art-related initiatives and innovative local curatorial projects. In March 2014 Anca Poterașu Gallery began the process of expanding with a new gallery space, located in the same building as the current location. In the current transition period this extension is being used for a series of exhibition projects meant to test the architecture of the space for the new purpose. Anca Poterașu Gallery aims to be active on the international scene, to increase the visibility and accessibility of Romanian contemporary art on the international art markets and to encourage cultural cooperation and intercultural dialogue. An essential part of the Gallery’s policy is an open call program addressed to emerging artists, which aims at providing them - every two years - with a framework for professional exhibiting and a dynamic work environment.

“For over a quarter of a century Miron Schmückle has been traveling through his botanical worlds. And, as every botanist, he enjoys both the presentation of the world of plants to enchanted gazes and the competent systematization of this universe. Therefore, his splendid cosmos of buds, flowers, leaves, stems, stalks, roots and tubers are shown into series of works. Hortus Conclusus is opened in 1994 and is perpetually being updated, as well as the series Botanical Archives, conceived in 1996, while Architektur Capricci can be contained between 2003 and 2004. In this oeuvre project, it already becomes clear that for Schmückle it is a matter of extending an unlimited dynamic for vegetal growth, within an untamed luxuriance, with the simultaneous claim explaining that the supposed disorder also implies a form of order." - Excerpt from curatorial text, by Dr. Hans-Werner Schmidt
