Safety First! The Aftermath was a solo exhibition by Roxana Donaldson at Galeria Calea Victoriei 91-93 in Bucharest. At the opening, on 19 November 2025, I moderated an artist and curator talk with Roxana Donaldson and the curator Silvia Stoica.
About Safety First! The Aftermath
The exhibition ran from 19 to 30 November 2025. It was the second iteration of Roxana Donaldson’s modular installation, a conceptual exploration of anxiety. It was organised by 24/7ART, curated by Silvia Stoica and supported by the Ana Foundation for Culture and Art.
The talk brought together three points of view on the same work, the artist’s, the curator’s and mine, as a critic. It took place among the works, in front of the audience of the opening.
I also wrote about the exhibition in Roxana Donaldson, Pathology as an Affective Cartography and interviewed the artist for Docuart. Later, we met again at Brâncuși Nocturn, in the debate Curator vs. artist.
