Adrian Ghenie’s first personal exhibition, "If You Open It You Get Dirty" (2006) came as a natural consequence of his graduation from the University of Art and Design from Cluj-Napoca (2001) and of his establishment, in 2005, together with Mihai Pop, of the Plan B gallery. Some of the artist’s works are in renowned public and private collections, such as the one from the Pompidou Centre, Paris; S.M.A.K Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst, Ghent; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, California; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, California; The Contemporary Art Centre, Malaga. Adrian Ghenie represented Romania in the 56th edition of the Venice Biennial (2015), and he ended the year 2019 with a personal exhibition, "I Have Turned My Only Face" at the Hermitage Museum in Sankt Petersburg. From the first personal exhibition until now, the themes and the style of his works have transformed, they have gradually defined themselves over the course of time, containing landmarks pertaining to history, collective and individual memory, the subconscious. Historic individualities, from the national, as well as from the international repertoire of the 20th century, are captured in an atmosphere reminding of cinema scenes with haunted interiors. The descriptive passage dedicated to the artist Adrian Ghenie, from the official site of the Pace Gallery, notes the fact that his recent works are marked by the conflict between the rational and the irrational, particularly in the key moments of history, marked by social turmoil. The 56th edition of the Venice Biennial (2015) represented a key point for both the artist’s career, and for Romania, the Biennial being the most prestigious artistic event in the field, and Romania having the chance of being represented by an artist who had caught the attention of all those involved in the international artistic scene. It was for the first time in 10 years that the National Pavillion from Giardini della Biennale was hosting a personal exhibition. In this project specially created for Romania’s Pavilion, the artist’s works were an incubator of ideas for the future, unofficially analysing history, by imagining Darwin next to Freud and Marx. The architecture of the exhibition, conceived by Attila Kim, was also related to the artist’s pursuit of the relation between cause and effect, past and present, proposing a form close to that of 1938. The year 2019 ended with a personal exhibition in one of the world’s most prestigious museums, the Hermitage State Museum from Sankt Petersburg. As conveyed in the official communication, the novelty of the exhibition originates precisely from the artist’s personal experience with the masterpieces from the museum’s heritage, which he admired in an art album he received as a gift when he was a child. The title of the exhibition is taken from a poem by Nichita Stănescu, a Romanian poet nominated for the Nobel Prize. Thus, the viewer is invited to discover the influence of the past once again, the analysis of individual memory, in the artist’s creation.
