In 2021, the inaugural edition of Bucharest Sculpture Days opened entirely online, not as a workaround for a closed city, but as a deliberate proposition. Launched on International Sculpture Day, ZSB gathered ninety contemporary sculptors into a shared digital territory. The exhibition framed sculpture not as a fixed object, but as a way of thinking about form, body, material, and presence: fluid, experimental, and collective from the start.
The first edition did not impose a single curatorial theme. Instead, it proposed a shared question and let ninety sculptors answer in their own languages. The works traversed materiality, gesture, digital mediation, memory, and the body, often at the intersection between object, image, and concept. Without a physical space, sculpture expanded into screens, fragments, and new forms of presence.
