We are approaching the opening of the Chișinău edition of ‘NEW HOPE”.

The show opens at the National Museum of Art of Moldova on July 29, 2026.

Framed as a possible “interregnum”, a moment in which the old world has dissolved and the new one has yet to fully emerge, “NEW HOPE” approaches hope as a fragile and paradoxical condition. It persists despite collapse, reappears in unstable forms, and becomes a way of navigating a reality shaped by rupture, post-truth, and ongoing transformation.

Born in 1974 in Ghetlova, Republic of Moldova, Roman Tolici studied in Bucharest, where he continues to live and work. His practice, associated with a photographic realism infused with lyrical and subtly surreal undertones, has been exhibited internationally, including in Romania, the Republic of Moldova, Germany, the Czech Republic, and the United States. He is considered one of the leading artists of his generation.
