URBAN AUTOBIOGRAPHYGeorge Banu
Photos by Mihaela Marin
George Banu recomposes with talent and emotion the sequences of the road that has lead him to discover and to create his own personal Paris right there, in the very heart of the famous city. Taken 40 years after, the photos that capture the most important moments of Banu's existence are signed by Mihaela Marin. The book offers an excellent opportunity to follow the landmarks of an "urban autobiography", as well as to discover a "double" city - the secret and the exemplary Paris.
THE MODERN STAGE. MYTHOLOGIES AND MINIATURES
George Banu
A European spectator, an involved spectator – George Banu invites his readers to cast a poetic glance over the modern stage, seizing and relieving its “mythologies.” Thanks to these reunited “miniatures,” Banu’s book reveals the genuineness of the contemporary performance by exhibiting its highly characteristic and efemerous processes of crystallization.
MONOLOGUES OF UNFULFILLMENT
George Banu
Personal confessions and aesthetic approaches associate in Banu’s book in order to interrogate the relationship between undividual unfulfillment and collective fulfillment, nourishing each other on a mutual basis.
