| The ROM Presents Public Events to Complement Dan Perjovschi: Late News Exhibition Posted: 05 Feb 2010 02:33 AM PST
Distinguished in the world of contemporary art, Dan Perjovschi will draw his brilliant and irreverent cartoons directly onto the dramatic soaring walls of the Roloff Beny Gallery, on Level 4 of the Michael Lee-Chin Crystal at the ROM between February 15 and 22. He will spend this time in residence at the Museum creating his unique site-specific line drawings while interacting with ROM visitors. This original work will remain on display until August 15, 2010. Over winter and spring 2010, the ICC will host several public events exploring political and cultural themes suggested by Late News, ranging from the power of the political cartoon in today's world, to Romania's vibrant contemporary society.

Panelists include Tudor Giurgiu (producer, director and president of the Transylvania International Film Festival), Jennie Punter (film critic and contributor to the Globe and Mail newspaper), and Adam Nayman (film critic).

About Dan Perjovschi: Late News: From February 15 to February 22, 2010, Dan Perjovschi will transform the walls of the Roloff Beny Gallery. While working in the gallery, he will immerse himself in local media, surveying news from local and international newspapers, internet, TV and radio, which will provide the inspiration for his work. Perjovschi's acclaimed exhibitions are always a personal response to the social and political atmosphere, and the geographic location, in which they are created. The works will be created during public hours, allowing Museum visitors to observe the creation in progress, making the drawing project a performance in itself. The installation will remain on view until August 15, 2010. As the work will be painted over at the conclusion of the exhibition period, the ICC will produce a free publication (available in the gallery in the spring) that will be the record of the Late News installation.
About Dan Perjovschi: Romanian-born Dan Perjovschi is an artist who mixes drawing, cartoon and graffiti in artistic pieces drawn directly on the walls of European and American museums and contemporary art spaces. These drawings – both witty and incisive – comment on current political, social or cultural issues or events. His stark style of line drawing allows him to condense the conflicts and dilemmas of the world into a rapid-response commentary that is both political and honest.
Institute for Contemporary Culture The Institute for Contemporary Culture (ICC) plays a vital role at the ROM, a museum whose collections embrace many civilizations through the ages. While the ROM documents history, the ICC is the ROM's window on contemporary society, exploring current cultural issues through exhibitions of art, lectures, film series, and informal gatherings. The ROM's collections provide context and depth to the contemporary issues addressed by participants in ICC events from around the world. In this, and many other ways, the ICC serves as a catalyst for stimulating public conversations. For more information on the ICC, visit www.rom.on.ca/about/icc

| BNR a urcat prognoza de inflaţie pentru 2010 Posted: 05 Feb 2010 01:34 AM PST
"Va fi şi în ianuarie un impact negativ de la preţul petrolului. Am rectificat astfel semnificativ şi prognoza pe acest an (...) Mai mult de o cincime din impactul inflaţionist provine dintr-o măsură administrativă", a declarat, vineri, într-o conferinţă de presă, guvernatorul băncii centrale, Mugur Isărescu. El a mai arătat că şi la nivelul combustibililor, unde preţurile se comportă rigid, va exista un impact similar celui de anul trecut. Potrivit prognozei BNR, inflaţia CORE 2 ajustat va scădea semnificativ în acest an, dar în 2011 va reveni la valori mai ridicate. Isărescu a punctat că la începutul anului viitor este posibil ca inflaţia să intre sub intervalul de variaţie ţintit. Rata anuală a inflaţiei a coborât de la 6,3% în 2008 la 4,74% anul trecut, în contextul unei creşteri a preţurilor cu 0,3% în decembrie faţă de noiembrie, dar BNR a ratat ţinta pentru al treilea an consecutiv.
