Young Christian Binder (n. 1986) childhood spent in Brasov and Sighisoara, and adolescence Berne. Return home with a keen interest in what seems to be here "different" than Helvetica lands, a "fact" that you value the most natural to, more human, less embellished. His first exhibition of the year 2008, just 22 years, was initiated by the young Julie Dawson, Sighisoara working as Peace Corps Foundation sent. Together they composed and performed the theme of an exhibition on some monuments neglected due to migration minorities that gave them identity - it's exhibition "Synagogues of Southern Transylvania", which was initially exposed to Proetnica festival in Sighisoara, then in Targu Mures, Bucharest – at the Association 21 December, Days in Romanian Federation of Associations, UNESCO Clubs and Centres – and then itinerated to, New York, Philadelphia and London.
The current exhibition, dedicated Brasov, is a search for multiple identities hometown, identity conferred by architectural spaces throughout the centuries to the present, but people, all these identities being often a confusing intersection at first sight. A wide zoom from Tampa to medieval Brasov is caught in winter as Pieter Breughel landscape of, Industrial Brasov depict grays dialogue present in concrete and metal walls of that orange ITest a Skoda years 70, Brasov transition occurs over several images that overlap pitiful old city of contemporary advertisements, and Brasov "forever" is found in sober and pure black and white, many nocturnal, the lace made of light and shadow enhances a mystery not want to loose. Included in the "identity" of UNESCO Club Alumnus and presented to the public at the initiative of the Cultural House "Friedrich Schiller", presence of Brasov thematic approach initiated by Christian Binder is a continuation of stylistically its first exhibition. Angle landscapes today that sense of Brasov, presence of people who inhabit it and the frequent use of black and white creates often strange images, achieved if the eternal ideas of "passage of time", "Alienate", "Futility".
