Lia Perjovschi (b. 1961) is a conceptual artist and performer who has long been working with the organization and critical reflection of information. She is the founder and coordinator of the CAA CAA –Contemporary Art Archive and Center for Art Analysis and the initiator of the interdisciplinary research project Knowledge Museum. Dan Perjovschi (b. 1961) is a journalist, cartoonist and visual artist whose characteristic drawing-spatial interventions critically comment on contemporary society and ironically gloss over political and cultural conflicts with a characteristic artistic shorthand. Among his latest works, we should mention the prestigious realization for the last year of the Documenta exhibition in Kassel, Germany. Dan Perjovschi's work is also well known in the Czech Republic - in 2009 he realized the central artwork for the National Technical Library in Dejvice - 200 monumental drawings on the walkways in the atrium of the building.
