Presented by Jecza Gallery at Scânteia+ in Bucharest, New Tenant | Sunshine Noir marks Marius Bercea's first solo exhibition in the Romanian capital and his most ambitious exhibition to date. In its review, Monopol explores how the exhibition transforms the former Scânteia printing house into a theatrical environment inspired by Eugène Ionesco's The New Tenant, where painting, sculptural elements, and scenographic interventions construct liminal spaces between memory and reality. The article highlights Bercea's exploration of post-socialist landscapes, architecture, and cultural identity, positioning the exhibition as an immersive experience that blurs the boundaries between visual art, theatre, and lived history.
