Alex Mirutziu

Alex Mirutziu lives and works in Romania and the UK. His works include conceptual writing, performance, photography and video installations. At age 19, he is accepted without examination at the University of Fine Arts from Cluj as exceptional student. Following the disturbing soloist performance Atrocity Exhibition, in 2004 he goes on to further his research in Spain at the University of Fine Arts, Cuenca, where his performative approaches provoked one of his projects to be prohibited, issuing strong reactions among artists and scholars in both Spain and Romania. He toured England with his famous social comment performance, Leave Gordon Brown Alone, produced in Liverpool, Leeds, Berlin. He received international recognition in Madrid and Paris at Optica Video Art Festival.
