Dan Perjovschi

b. 1961 Sibiu

Witty wall-drawer of global politics, drawing directly on museum walls.

Perjovschi draws fast, ironic cartoons directly on walls, floors and windows of institutions, commenting on politics, the art world and daily news. He represented Romania at the 1999 Venice Biennale and filled the MoMA atrium in 2007 with 'What Happened to Us?'.
