Between 6-13 march 2003 took place the third gobelins exhibition at G.T. Kirileanu library in Piatra Neamt. The exhibition was organized by Neamt County Council through the Directorate of Art and Culture of Neamt County.

In August 2003 I founded the “The Gobelin and Handicraft Art” association with the aim to participate to internal and international exhibitions and fairs.

The association had the main interest to promotte the gobelin tapestry as art. I would like to determine all passionate gobelin tapestry workers to sew only gobelins UNICAT. That’s why I offer to members free of charge 2 unique designs every year , and the possibility to post on my site 5 models worked by them. Those who wish to enroll must take into account the fact that the membership is not a guarantee for selling tapestries, but we will do everything we can to be present where possible – the national and international fairs and exhibitions.

From 2004 April 24 to May 2 I participated to the International Fair ” Art ” from Florence, Italy, opportunity with which I was invited to participate at the International Fair from Milano (The biggest suchlike from world)” AF – l’Artigiano in fiera, “ what deploys yearly in month of December.

At the Neamt County Chamber of Commerce and Industry invitation, I participated to the International Fair Bucharest, which took place in period 1- 6 June 2004.

Also in June month of 2004, in period 25-27, I was exhibitor at “Big Summer Fair of National Museum of Village, Dimitrie Gusti ” – Bucharest.

With the aid of Neamt County Council and the ” G.T.Kirileanu ” library, in period 17- 30 November 2004, the “ The Gobelin and Handicraft Art” association organized in hall Cupola of G.T.Kirileanu Library, a exhibition presented by the President of Culture Commission , the art critic Cristian Livescu.

The Senate of Romania housed me a personal exhibition in 2005 form June 3 to June 31.

Between 3- 31 March 2007, the Art Museum from Roman of Neamt County, invited me to display over 100 gobelins. The varnish took place on March 8 and it was held by the teacher artist Iosif Haidu and teacher Minodora Ursache.

To promote my last original gobelins in my town, the Central Hotel housed me an exhibition from 15 to 20 June 2007.

At the invitation of Art Gallery Grand Hotel Traian Iasi, I exposed part of my collection of tapestry , whose patterns are unique. The exhibition was titled “Famous Portraits” and was open from September 30 to October 2, 2010.

Between May 30 to June 2, 2013 I had the honor and pleasure to participate , along with some of the members of the Association of Gobelin and Handycraft Art at TIBCO 2013. Participation in the international exhibition was made possible thanks to the invitation to be a partner in organizing the event, offered by the leadership Romexpo whom we thanks again for the opportunity to exhibit at this very important fair.

Exposure conditions and facilities offered by Romexpo Bucharest led us to join and participate in Antique Market 2013 17-21 September. Our presence at the fair was a success from all points of view ( see also diploma ) . We want to perpetuate our presence in this exhibition and we will participate at the third edition wich will take place on 5-8 December 2013.

Association filed the necessary documentation to participate to the first edition of the National Arts and Crafts Fair organized by the Romanian Government from 16 to 20 October 2013 in the Romexpo Exhbition Complex in Bucharest. After the evaluation and selection process the Gobelin Art anf Hanycraft Association was selected to participate at this fair .

To promote this art, I intend to participate to international and internal exhibitions and in this aim I search sponsors and contributors to cover a part of expenses, offering them in exchange, advertisement on my site and in the exhibition framework.

The cultural activity complete

Am fost initiata in arta goblenului in toamna anului 1981. Pina acum am cusut peste 150 goblenuri. Din anul 2004 imi realizez cu ajutorul unui program pe calculator propriile modele pentru goblenurile unicat.

Colectia mea de goblenuri a putut fi admirata cu ocazia mai multor expozitii.

Elena Zidaru

Prima expozitie a avut loc intre 5-8 martie 1999 in holul Hotelului Central din Piatra Neamt, si a fost organizata la invitatia Camerei de Comert si Industrie Neamt.

A doua expozitie a avut vernisajul in data de 17 octombrie 2002, si a fost organizata de Galeria TopArt din Piatra Neamt. Expozitia a fost prezentata de criticul de arta Lucian Strochi si s-a incheiat pe data de 15 noiembrie 2002.

Intre 6-13 martie 2003 a avut loc a treia expozitie de goblenuri la Biblioteca „G. T. Kirileanu” in Piatra Neamt. Expozitia a fost organizata de Consiliul Judetean Neamt prin Directia de Cultura si Arta a judetului Neamt.

In luna august 2003 am fondat Asociatia Gobelnul si Arta Lucrului Manual cu scopul de a participa la targuri si expozitii interne si internationale.

La infiintarea asociatiei am avut ca interes prioritar promovarea goblenului ca arta. Imi doresc sa-I determinan pe cei ce lucreaza goblen din pasiune sa lucreze la un alt nivel, cel al goblenurilor UNICAT. De aceea ofer membrilor in mod gratuit cite 2 modele UNICAT pe an si posibilitatea postari pe site-ul meu a 5 modele lucrate de ei (postarile vor fi posibile pana vom avea posibilitatea financiara de a construi propriul site al membrilor asociatei). Cei ce doresc sa se inscrie trebuie sa tina cont de faptul ca, a fi membru, nu este o garantie pentru vanzarea de goblenuri, dar vom face tot ce putem, pentru a fi prezenti acolo unde acest lucru este posibil – Targuri si Expozitii interne si international.

In perioada 24 aprilie – 2 mai 2004 am participat la Targul International „Art” de la Florenta, Italia, ocazie cu care am fost invitata sa particip si la Targul International de la Milano (cel mai mare de acest fel din lume) „AF – L’Artigiano in Fiera”, targ ce se desfasoara anual in luna decembrie.

La invitatia Camerei de Comert si Industrie Neamt, am participat la Targul International de Bunuri de Consum Bucuresti, ce a avut loc in perioada 1- 6 iunie 2004.

Tot in luna iunie 2004, in perioada 25-27, am fost expoxant la „Marele Targ de Vara” al Muzeului National al Satului ”Dimitrie Gusti” – Bucuresti.

Cu sprijinul Consiliului Judetean Neamt si al Bibliotecii „G.T. Kirileanu”, in perioada 17- 30 noiembrie 2004, Asociatia Goblenul si Arta Lucrului Manual a organizat in Sala Cupola a Bibliotecii G.T. Kirileanu, o expozitie prezentata de Presedintele Comisiei de Cultura, criticul de arta Cristian Livescu.

Senatul Romaniei mi-a gazduit o expozitie personala in perioada 3-31 iunie 2005.

Intre 3- 31 martie 2007, Muzeul de Arta din Roman, jud. Neamt, m-a invitat sa expun 100 de goblenuri. Vernisajul a avut loc pe 8 Martie si a fost sustinut de artistul plastic profesor Iosif Haidu si de profesoara Minodora Ursache.

Pentru a face cunoscute ultimele realizari de goblenuri unicat si in orasul de resedinta, Hotelul Central mi-a gazduit o expozitie in perioada 15-20 iunie 2007.

La invitatia Galeriei de Arta apartinand Grand Hotel Traian din Iasi, am expus o parte din colectia mea de goblenuri, ale caror modele sunt unicate. Expozitia a fost intitulata “Portrete celebre” si a fost deschisa in perioada 30 septembrie – 02 octombrie 2010.

In perioada 30 mai – 2 iunie 2013 am avut deosebita onoare si placere de a participa, impreuna cu o parte din membrii Asociatiei Goblenul si Arta Lucrului Manual, la TIBCO 2013. Participarea la acest targ international a fost posibila datorita invitatiei de a fi partener in organizarea evenimentului, oferita de catre cei din conducerea ROMEXPO, carora le multumim inca odata pentru posibilitatea de a expune in cadrul unui targ atat de important.

Conditiile de expunere si facilitatile oferite de RomExpo Bucuresti ne-au determinat sa ne inscriem si sa participam la Antique Market 2013 in perioada 17-21 septembrie.

Prezenta noastra in targ a fost un success din toate punctele de vedere (a se vedea si diploma obtinuta). Ne dorim sa permanentizam prezenta noastra in acest targ, urmand sa participam si la editia a III-a ce v-a avea loc in perioada 5-8 decembrie 2013.

Asociatia a depus documentatia necesara partiparii la prima editie a Targului National de Artizanat si Mestesuguri organizat de Guvernul Romaniei in perioada 16 – 20 octombrie 2013 in cadrul Complexului expositional Romexpo Bucuresti. Ca urmare a procesului de evaluare si selectie Asociatia Goblenul si Arta Lucrului Manual a fost selectata sa participle la acest targ.

Pentru a promova aceasta arta, intentionez sa particip la expozitii in tara si in strainatate si in acest scop caut colaboratori si sponsori in vederea acoperiri unei parti din cheltuieli, oferind la schimb reclama pe site si in cadrul expozitiei.
