The documentary exhibition "Wind of Change", mounted at the Water Tower – the Chisinau City History Museum, offers the visitors an artistic reinterpretation of the Soviet past, especially the period of the 1980s and 1990s. The exhibition space is presented in the form of an open book, which, according to the organizers, unites the past with the present and becomes a platform for interaction for artists of different generations, IPN reports.

Artist Tatiana Fyodorova-Lefter, the author of this project, argued that the exhibition transforms the personal experiences of the artists into a collective voice "that helps us better understand the past and the challenges we face today amidst new transformations".

The inaugural event began with a theatrical performance in front of the Museum and continued with the presentation of the works displayed at the exhibition. One of the works, signed by Glebus Sainciuc, was offered to the Museum by his son, artist Lică Sainciuc.

The exhibition titled “Wind of Change" can be visited until November 30. It is part of the Nomad Office for Research in Art Project, funded by the Government of Switzerland, and was organized under the aegis of the General Culture and Cultural Heritage Division of the municipality of Chisinau.
