PAVILION UNICREDIT prezinta /for English please scroll down Sina Najafi: CABINETUL CURIOZITATILOR Joi, 15 Octombrie, 2009, 19.00Discutia va examina strategiile folosite in revista Cabinet pentru a incuraja o "cultura a curiozitatii" ce evoca, in cuvintele lui Michel Foucault, "o grija pentru ceea ce exista si ce ar putea exista; o disponibilitate de a vedea lucrurile ce ne inconjoara ca bizare si singulare; o neincetata determinare de a elimina familiaritatile si de a privi altfel aceleasi lucruri; o fervoare in a intelege ceea ce se intampla si ceea ce trece; o usurinta in ceea ce priveste ierarhiile traditionale ale importantului si ale esentialului."
Considerata una dintre cele mai interesante reviste de cultura si arta contemporana din lume Cabinet se afla la numarul 34. Editata la New York, revista este ditribuita in toata lumea si a primit numeroare premii.

------- Sina Najafi: THE CABINET OF CURIOSITIES October 15, 19.00 hoursThe talk will looks at the strategies used in Cabinet magazine in order to help foster a "culture of curiosity" that evokes, in the words of Michel Foucault, "a care for what exists and could exist; a readiness to find strange and singular what surrounds us; a relentlessness to break up our familiarities and to regard otherwise the same things; a fervor to grasp what is happening and what passes; a casualness in regard to the traditional hierarchies of the important and the essential."
Sina Najafi is editor-in-chief of Cabinet magazine and the editorial director of Cabinet Books.
