Spațiu de artă independent în locul în care ar fi trebuit deja să fie un spațiu de artă independent. sursa text

The permanent exhibition of Romanian Art was opened in the halls of the Blue House on November 25th, 2009. The exhibition circuit follows the painting evolution in Romania during the 18th – 20th century, based on chronologic and stylistic elements on display. The exhibition concept comparatively and synchronically emphasizes the representative artists of the national art and what it is specific to the Brukenthal collection: Transylvanian painting background (one of the richest of the country) completed with highly valued works of the modern and inter-war Romanian painting, until after the middle of the 20th century. Thus, the selection underlines the influences which the European art had over the national art, the interferences of the two artistic environments but also its specificity / originality. Without ignoring the creation of the Transylvanian painters Johann Martin Stock, Franz Neuhauser, Mişu Popp, Carl Dörschlag, Arthur Coulin or Octavian Smigelschi, who overreach with the charm and the unprecedented picturesque of their works, the new exhibition, based on the criterion of value, offers to the visiting public established works created by the following artists: Theodor Aman, Nicolae Grigorescu, Ion Andreescu, Ştefan Luchian, Hans Mattis-Teutsch, Corneliu Mihăilescu, Gheorghe Petraşcu, Theodor Pallady, Nicolae Tonitza, Alexandru Ciucurencu, Corneliu Baba, Ion Ţuculescu

The Steam Locomotives Museum was inaugurated in Sibiu on August 23rd, 1994. The collection activity of the most valuable steam locomotives of the Romanian railway network started since 1991. Today over 30 steam locomotives, ploughs and steam cranes that crossed the Romanian railway over one hundred years ago are made available to the public. The exhibits were built during 1885 and 1959 at Domeniilor Reşiţa Factory, 23 August Factory and Malaxa Factory of Romania, Schwartzkopff Factory, Orenstein & Koppel Factory, Borsig Factory of Berlin, Mavag Factory of Budapesta, Skoda Factory and others, including in Austria, Sweden and USA. Among them there are locomotives with wide track spacing and for narrow-gauge railway, the so-called funicular railway (narrow-gauge railway trains, which used to cross mountain areas). Two of these locomotives are functional and used on various occasions. On December 31st, 2000, the locomotives were declared, by order to the minister of culture, treasury patrimony, being protected by the law.

Mă numesc Dan-Raul Pintea și m-am născut în 1981 la Sibiu, unde am terminat Liceul de Arte în 2000. În 2004 am absolvit Facultatea de Arte Plastice la UAD Cluj, secția Grafică, apoi Masterul în 2006 iar din 2007 îmi urmez pasiunea. În 2007 mi-am dat demisia de la job ca să fac doar artă. Pentru că tot timpul mi se ducea muncind ca să plătesc chiria, m-am mutat înapoi în Sibiu la ai mei, unde timp de doi ani am construit un atelier în care să lucrez la visul meu de a deveni artist. În 2009 mi-am propus ca în 7 ani să reuşeasc să trăiesc doar din artă şi în naivitatea mea primul an l-am pierdut aplicând la diferite Open Calls şi Submissions de proiecte în speranța că voi primi finanţare dar am fost refuzat peste tot. Iar cum în Sibiu Galeria de Artă a Muzeului Brukenthal nu avea loc pentru artiștii emergenți, am expus în București la Anca Poterașu Glalery care m-a reprezentat timp de 3 ani dar nici varianta asta n-a mers deoarece nu a putut să-mi vândă decât 4 lucrări la un târg din Berlin, unde acolo se apreciază arta. Nemaiputând răbda foame, am întrerupt colaborarea în 2012 şi am transformat pasiunea pentru artă și dorinţa de a-mi câştiga existenţa din ceea ce îmi place să fac, într-un concept numit Dragoste. Era underground la început dar am fost nevoit să mă împrumut ca să-l înregistrez la OSIM după ce Skizzo Skillz a încercat să-mi copieze ideea printând o duzină de șepci. Şi aşa a devenit brand. În 2013 Eugen Rădescu, co-fondatorul Bucharest Biennale, mi-a văzut strigătul de ajutor pe o platformă de socializare și mi-a lansat brandul Dragoste la Pavilion Unicredit din București, într-o instalaţie cu cărţile mele de artă pe care le vindeam ca să pot face artă. Apoi am scos tot la vânzare pe internet și din banii obţinuţi am cumpărat tricouri, pe care le-am scris cu Dragoste, le-am cărat în ghiozdan şi expus pe jos la târguri locale şi festivale. Am pornit de/pe jos, la propriu ca să zic așa. În 2014, 2015, 2016 am ajuns cu brand-ul până în galeriile din Bucureşti, la Noaptea Albă Galeriilor şi la Art Safari, singurul târg de artă din ţară. În 2016 am început să organizez Noaptea Albă a Galeriilor Sibiu în parteneriat cu Asociația Ephemair pentru a promova arta emergentă sibiană. Un timp mi-am neglijat brandul implicându-mă mai mult decât trebuia într-un grup de artişti locali, expunând cu ei în spaţii neconvenţionale pentru a semnala Primăriei din Sibiu lipsa galeriilor dar când am văzut că nu merge nicăieri, m-am refocalizat pe Dragoste. Aşa se face că în 2017 m-am întors la Cluj ca să particip la Zain Design, un Accelerator de proiecte la finalul căruia am fost ales câștigător de către un juriu de specialitate, ce m-a sprjinit în sfârşit în realizarea colecției și lansarea oficială a brand-ului Dragoste în Noiembrie. Ba chiar unul dintre membrii juriului, influencerul Noemi Meilman care cu un an înainte mi-a făcut poză la tricoul expus la Art Safari, mi-a cumpărat câteva tricouri pe care le-a promovat apoi pe social media unde le-a văzut Andreea Esca, care a vrut și ea unul. Și cum Esca e sibiancă, ne-am întâlnit într-o zi la un restaurant unde i-am spus povestea.  Impresionată, mi-a propus un interviu pentru ROMÂNIA TE IUBESC, unde am apărut pe 17 decembrie 2017 și am avut succes instant căci am primit o groază de comenzi și am reușit astfel ce mi-am propus în urmă cu 7 ani. Și anume să trăiesc din dragoste, din pasiunea mea, deci din artă. Sfârșit A fost ca în filmele cu final fericit. În realitate însă, povestea continuă. În 2020 am închiriat un spațiu pe strada Andrei Șaguna nr. 5 și am deschis Dragoste Gallery ca să-mi și expun arta, dacă tot am reușit să devin artist. Nu are un program fix pentru că mai mult stau la atelier, deși cine dorește mă poate suna pe 0728205248 și vin să deschid, nu e problemă.

The mission of the ASTRA Museum is, for more than 100 years, to connect the audience with traditional values, through continuous change to the cultural needs of the society. Whether we are talking about Romanian, Saxon, other minority or even extra-European heritage, the ASTRA Museum is the keeper and the provider of the authentic values ​​to the community. Although its profile is ethnographic, the mission of the ASTRA Museum goes beyond the exclusive promotion of the traditional, becoming a true cultural promoter at the fusion between old and new, traditional and modern, national and global. To remain relevant to its audience, ASTRA Museum invests in programs meant to improve the cultural life of the community and encourage people to turn tradition into an active part of their daily lives. It has four museums with an extremely rich heritage varied regarding the geographical origin but also of the message it carries, the central goal of the ASTRA Museum is to represent a standard of good practices in Romanian and international museology. [Image] Successor and keeper of the heritage and values ​​of ”The Museum of the Association”, ”The Museum of Transylvanian Civilization ASTRA”, integral part of the ”C.N.M. ASTRA”, brings to its visitors, the charming world of the multiethnic Transylvania. A simple walk through the 96 hectares of ”The ASTRA Museum of Traditional Folk Civilization”, reveals to visitors an image of rural life throughout our country, exhibited in over 400 houses, household annexes and technical installations. ”Emil Sigerus – The Museum of Saxon Ethnography”, curator of Saxon culture and civilization in Transylvania, successor of the Carpathian Museum, has the most important ethnographic collections with a Saxon profile, with the name of the great personality, with significant merits in this field, Emil Sigerus. ”Franz Binder – The Museum of Universal Ethnography” is the only museum in Romania with the profile of capitalizing on extra-European heritage. Being in conservation for the moment, the museum defines its vision as an anthropological museum of world cultures, meant to understand the social phenomena of contemporary society. ”The ASTRA Center for Heritage”, with its facilities, solves the issue of conservation and restoration on all types of support, based on solid theoretical and practical knowledge. Saving heritage requires dedication, understanding, knowledge and perseverance in the process of conservation and restoration the objects and monuments that are physical, chemical and biological degraded. ”The Conservation and Restoration Training Center” – represents a substructure within the ASTRA Museum which has two essential missions among the museum functions. The first involves the preventive conservation of collections, and the second, the professional development of those who contribute to the preservation of cultural heritage. “ASTRA Museum” – publishing house, was established in 1995, continuing and developing the publication of monographs and periodicals initiated in 1966 by the specialized team led by Cornel Irimie, founder of the Open Air Museum in Dumbrava Sibiului.

Inaugurated in 2007, within “Friedrich Teutsch” Culture and Dialogue Centre, the A.C. Evangelic Church Museum of Romania presents a panorama of the Augustan Confession (Lutheran) Evangelic Church history in Romania, as well as a of the community and religious life of the Transylvanian Saxons. Located on the 1st floor of Teutsch House, on a surface of approximately 400 sm, the permanent exhibition is structured in chronological and thematic sections as follows: - Arrival of German colonists in Transylvania; - Fortified churches of the Transylvanian Saxons; - Lutheran Protestant reform; - Community life joined by the church; - Church and school, priests and masters; - Sacral art; - From counter-reforms to the watershed of the millennia.

The treasury of the museum included works of the most famous goldsmiths of Transylvania. A particular attraction is the special collection of dolls dressed in festive Transylvanian Saxon costumes that differ according to geographical region and wearer’s age.

The Museum of Hunting is named after one of the important personalities of the city of Sibiu in the late 19th and the early 20th centuries: Colonel August von Spiess, the Keeper of the Royal Hunting under the King Ferdinand I of Romania.   The Museum opened as the first of its profile on the national level, in the year 1966, being accommodated in the Von Spiess residence, donated on this porpoise by the Colonel’s daughters.   The collection comprises about 1600 items.  The Museum courtyard in the back of the building was arranged to serve as a relaxation open space for the visitors and a proper environment for ecological education of children as it hosts many species of plants, a dog, fishes and a tortoise. 

The ASTRA Transylvanian Civilization Museum, founded in 1993, is the treasurer of the patrimony values inherited from the “Society” Museum (founded in 1905, by the Transylvanian Society for the Culture and Literature of the Romanian People and dissolved, according to a communistic dictate, in 1950). The museum has a patrimony of 9.002 items registered under the emblem “A”, divided into six collections: 6.523 embroideries, 1.025 costume-textiles, 567 objects of worship, 539 wood, bone, iron, 330 ceramic and 18 dolls. The collections increased, in the final half of the century, having today 30.138 items, of which: 8.740 costume-textiles, 9.884 embroideries, 3.960 ceramic, 4.147 objects of worship, 3.407 wood, bone, iron. Over the years, these patrimony values were presented at various exhibitions organized in the country and abroad, until the closing of the folk art Exhibition of Brukenthal Palace, in 1990. ASTRA Transylvanian Civilization Museum is imagined as a multi-ethnic and interdisciplinary museum and its purpose is to define the multicultural aspect of a European region with a multi-secular pluri-ethnical cohabitation, as well as the emphasis of these European community and ethnic particular values.

Vă mulțumim pentru înțelegere! PROGRAM BIBLIOTECĂ    Anunț!  Având în vedere faptul că biblioteca Muzeului Național Brukenthal se află în proces de inventariere, programul sălii de lectură pe parcursul anului 2026 va fi în fiecare zi de joi a săptămânii, în intervalul orar 10:00–14:00, doar cu programare prealabilă cu minimum 5 zile lucrătoare înainte, la adresa de e-mail: secretariat@brukenthalmuseum.ro Vă mulțumim pentru înțelegere!   Muzeul de Artă Contemporană al Muzeului Naţional Brukenthal este adăpostit de o clădire cu valoare arhitectonică şi istorică, datată 1901, care de-a lungul timpului a adăpostit diverse instituţii de cultură, astăzi redefinindu-se treptat ca o secţiune exclusiv destinată artei contemporane. Muzeul de Artă Contemporană al Muzeului Naţional Brukenthal menţine o poziţie importantă în zona spaţiilor de promovare a artei contemporane româneşti, reprezentând o puternică alternativă la tendinţa unică susţinută de Muzeul Naţional de Artă Contemporană din Bucureşti, având un caracter orientat spre public, spre o selecţie şi o prezentare cât mai liberă şi mai inovatoare a expoziţiilor.  Începând din anul 2014, spațiului destinat expozițiilor temporare aflat la parterul clădirii, i s-a adăugat depozitul vizitabil de artă contemporană, amenajat la etajul I și etajul al doilea al clădirii iar în anul 2019 a fost deschisă o nouă sală de expoziții temporare. Depozitul vizitabil promovează un concept mai puțin cunoscut în România.

"Emil Sigerus” Saxons Folk Art and Ethnography Museum is one of the units of "ASTRA" National Museum Compound, founded in 1997, along with the opening of the fundamental exhibition “Transylvanian Tiles. 15th – 19th centuries.”, with the purpose of preserving and promoting the material and immaterial patrimony belonging to the Transylvanian Saxons minority. "Emil Sigerus" Saxons Folk Art and Ethnography Museum took over the ethnographic patrimony owned by the Carpathian Museum (1895-1920). An important role in the improvement of the museum patrimony was that of collector Emil Sigerus, who donated over 500 valuable items, including textiles, painted furniture, glass, tin, silverware, but especially Transylvanian ceramics. The patrimony of "Emil Sigerus" Museum currently has over 8.900 pieces, structured in three collections: ceramics, costumes – textiles – embroideries and painted furniture. Since 2007, the headquarters of the museum operates inside the House of Arts, rehabilitated historic monument, documented mention in 1370.

Inaugurated in 1993, the "Franz Binder" Museum is the first and single museum of extra-European ethnography in Romania. The museum is organised in a historical monument building, built in the Neo-Gothic style between 1865 and 1867, initially as the headquarters for the Small Craftsmen Association and having various other functions over time. After its restoration in 1989 it became the headquarters of the "Franz Binder" Museum. The collections of the "Franz Binder" Museum (approx. 3000 exhibits) are divided into “old” ethnographic collections composed of exhibits donated during the second half of the 19th century and “new” collections which entered in the museum’s patrimony after 1990. The oldest collections are among the most valuable ones. They come from various parts of the world – the African continent being widely represented – and they were mainly collected on the field by members of the local and regional community and then donated to the Sibiu Association of Natural Sciences in Ardeal.

The Pharmacy History Museum was opened for visitation in 1972, its foundation being based on the long history of the pharmacy in Sibiu, because the first pharmacy on the Romanian territory was documented here (1494). The building of the museum is located in the Small Square at no. 26, representing an architectural historic monument that contains gothic and renaissance elements, dating since 1568. This building housed one of the oldest pharmacies of Sibiu, La Ursul Negru (At the Black Bear), founded around the year 1600. The collections of the museum include over 6.600 pieces that present the evolution of medication and pharmaceutical techniques over the years. The sectors with exhibits of the museum are divided as follows: Dispensary – the traditional component of a pharmacy, where the medicinal products are displayed. The furniture of the room was manufactured in Vienna in 1902 and it belonged to the old pharmacy La Vulturul Negru (At the Black Eagle) of Sibiu. Laboratory – where the following are displayed: medical balances, brass, cast iron and marble mortars, crushing and pulverizing machines, pieces for tablets and suppositories, percolators for medicinal plants tinctures, ceramic and metallic containers, melting pots, measuring tin cups, sieves, filters and laboratory glassware. The Collection of Homeopathy exemplifies the homeopathic therapy tradition in Sibiu, Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of the therapeutic doctrine, lived and was active in Sibiu between 1777 and 1779, as physician and secretary of Baron Samuel von Brukenthal, Governor of Transylvania.  The Collection includes over 2.900 pieces, namely kits and bottles of homeopathic recipes, which were taken over from the former apothecary La Înger (At the Angel) in Sibiu.

The History Museum is accommodated by the Altemberger-Pempfflinger House, located on 2nd Mitropoliei Street, headquarters of the City Hall of Sibiu during 1545 and 1948. The ten wings of the building, plus a guard tower, represent the most impressive civil gothic architecture ensemble of Romania and even of South-Eastern Europe. The construction was built by the team led by the stonemason Andreas Lapicida, at the end of the 15th century, upon the guidance of Thomas Altemberger. The oldest part is the tower-house, its construction being initiated at the end of the 13th century. The exhibitions that can be seen here are structured as follows:  - Evolution of human communities of the South of Transylvania, displaying the day to day life during the Palaeolithic, offering an image of life in caves, cottages, households, Roman villa, medieval house;  - Glass in Transylvania and Guilds of Sibiu, depicting human activities from wind processing to specialized production of the guilds;  - Roman lapidary and the Magistrate of Sibiu, evoking the social status and dignity of the leader;  - Weapons and armours, indicating other essential aspects of human existence in these places, such as war or the ritual aspect of religion;  - Thesaurus, containing liturgical silverware pieces.  The touristic exhibition circuit ends with the presentation of the national emancipation movement of the Southern Transylvania, displaying events during the 17th and the 20th centuries. 

The natural history museum was founded in 1849, at the initiative of the Natural Sciences Transylvanian Society, society constituted with the purpose of spreading its discoveries to the community and educating the younger generation about the knowledge and preservation of nature. The headquarters of the Natural Sciences Transylvanian Society was built according to the project of the Architect C.W. Friedrich Maetz of Cluj, the festive inauguration taking place on May 25th, 1895. The building was built in the late Italian Renaissance style, having three stories (underground, ground floor and first floor). The collections of the museum integrate approximately 1.100.000 pieces from different domains such as geology, palaeontology, botany and zoology. We can see here: the herbarium of J. Lerchenfeld (17th century); the herbarium of M. Fuss (1834-1882); the ornithological collection of F. W. Stetter (1853), including indigenous and exotic birds; the ethnographic collection of Palestine, Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia of the vice-consul Franz Binder; the Ackner minerals collection; the entomological collection of Dr. Eugen Worell (1957), including insects from Europe, Africa, America and Asia; the butterflies collection of Weindel (1965); the insects collection of H. Hannenheim (1964); the Breckner paleontological collection (1955), mainly including shark teeth of the tertiary collected from Porceşti region (Turnu Roşu); the Nyárádi botany collection (1980); the mineral collection of Dr. E. Bielz (1953); Kimakowicz malacology collection. Since December 21st, 2007, the Natural History Museum of Sibiu displays the most modern natural history exhibition of Romania, the new configuration conferring a special importance to the diorama exhibition, the pieces being displayed in order to reproduce the habitat of each animal within an ecosystem. The garden was set up as a relaxation area for the visitors, but also as an area where one can see common and rare species of plants, such as trees and ornamental scrubs.

Muzeul deține o colecție generoasă de păpuși îmbrăcate în porturi românești, săsești și țigănești, acestea fiind principala atracție. Încă de la intrare se pot observa câteva exponate așezate pe pervazul unui geam. Încăperea unde se află obiectele tradiționale este împărțită în două parți și anume, partea săsească și partea românească. „Am colecționat tot mai mult pentru că aveam senzația că dispare o lume, o lume veche, o lume a regulilor și a disciplinei” spune doamna Maria. Majoritatea obiectelor provin de pe Valea Hârtibaciului și din satul Săsăuș, satul de proveniență al colecționarei. Muzeul poate fi găsit pe Calea Gușteriței, nr. 54 B, iar intrarea este gratuită pentru oricine dorește să facă o mică incursiune în vremuri cu un farmec aparte și este curios să afle povești atât din viața comunității românești, cât și din cea săsească. Programul de vizitare este zilnic între orele 10-12 și 15-19, însă familia Drăgan este dispusă și dornică să primească vizitatori și în afara orarului.     sursa foto: Răzvan Negru sursa text

The Brukenthal Museum is a special institution because it is the first museum established in Romania and Central Europe, in 1817. It owes its existence to one of the most important personalities in Transylvania: Baron Samuel von Brukenthal, the governor of the province in the second half of the eighteenth century.  The Brukenthal Palace and the Baron's collections are the core of today's Brukenthal National Museum, its gates opened to the public since its founding by the testament of its founder.  A visit to the museum is not limited to a single building and to a unique specialization: it becomes a journey presenting multiple aspects of the past and the present, in their metamorphosis. A metamorphosis mirrored into a wide array of objects displayed on 10,000 m2 of exhibitions, of which 5,500 represent new and recently refurbished spaces.  Initially displaying the European painting collection of Baron Samuel von Brukenthal in a single building, today the museum hosts a great diversity of valuable collections in nine buildings. Five of them are palaces built at different times: the earliest building (with foundation elements from the 13th century) is part of the architectural complex hosting the History Museum, while the latest is from 1901, hosting the Contemporary Art Gallery.

No!Hai is a creative space in the historic center of Sibiu, dedicated to open the dialogue between artists, between artists and the public, between trainers and participants. A soace that function both as a small gallery and a creative workshop, which aims to become an embassy for an eclectic palette of forms of expression and representatives of the local cultural landscape, a space for sharing ideas and generating new cultural and educational projects.

The Brukenthal Palace is a symbol of Sibiu City, being the first museum of Romania, open to visitors since 1817. Its existence is due to prominent personalities of Transylvania’s history – Baron Samuel von Brukenthal – Governor of this province in the second half of the 18th century (1777-1787). The palace was built after the pattern of Vienna’s palaces in the late baroque style. Currently, the palace building and the collections of Baron Samuel von Brukenthal represent the core of Brukenthal National Museum. On the first floor of the museum, the visitor is introduced into the atmosphere of the 18th century of the reception Rooms, where the original silk tapestry, painted canvas or oriental motifs decorated board, tile stoves brought from Vienna and gilded lime-wood sculpted medallions (called supraporte) are still preserved. The following exhibitions can be visited: Medieval Art in Transylvania, Anatolian Carpets, as well as the segment with German and Austrian Paintings of the European painting collection. On the second floor of the museum we find other two important segments of the mentioned collection: Flemish and Dutch Painting and Italian Painting. In 2007 the special exhibition entitled Masterpieces of the Brukenthal collection was inaugurated, which includes 23 works that were recovered after being confiscated in 1948 and stolen in 1968. The patios of the Brukenthal Palace were open to visitation in 2008, accommodating the exhibitions of the Plates Study and Cartography Study, as well as the Gessoes Exhibition, Transylvanian stone sculpture during the 13th and 19th centuries and Gothic: neo-gothic experience vs. the illuminist pattern.
