Traffic in the art world: like all the up-to-date 
global art events, the 'Periferic' biennial of 
the Northromanian metropolis Iasi is linked to 
presentations in other cultural centers, too. 
This time however the ensuing transport of 
international artworks to the capital Bucharest 
is led on a two hours detour over the Carpathian 
Mountains to a small Transsilvanian town - 
Sepsiszentgyörgy. Here the driver takes a break, 
has a gorgeous lunch in pleasant company, and the 
inhabitants get condensed information about the 
international biennialistic art scene.
