Diana Gini
On August 11th, Iasi will meet a truly surprising creative voice: Diana Gini, author of the novel GAME ON, to be published simultaneously in Romanian, English, and Spanish - with a bold mission to build a global audience.
A graduate of the Faculty of Music in Oradea and a PhD student at the National Music Academy “Gh. Dima” in Cluj, Diana first emigrated to the United States, then traveled the wider world, and now lives in Madrid with her husband Pablo, originally from Uruguay, and their two children.
Ciprian Anton - Artist & Photographer
Ciprian Anton is a visual artist and photographer, passionate about stories that bring people together and build communities. Through images, he seeks to capture the authenticity, emotion, and connections that give meaning to our experiences.
The experience of a life lived between Romania and the diaspora has given him an open perspective on identity, belonging, and the power of community. Beyond photography, he believes in dialogue, collaboration, and people who choose to transform life experiences into sources of inspiration for others.
What to Expect
The evening promises to be full of surprises - joining Diana Gini will be special guests from Romania and visitors who have traveled especially from abroad for the occasion.
GAME ON is a fantasy novel born from the most real battle of her life. A story of masks, mirrors, and the particular courage it takes to finally see yourself clearly. At this event, Diana reads from the book, speaks candidly about the process of writing it, and opens the floor for the kind of conversation that only happens when someone commits to telling the truth in public.
Expect readings. Expect candid conversation. Expect special guests. Expect the particular quiet that settles in a room when something real is said out loud. Expect a great evening in casual attire.
The event will take place in an à la carte format, allowing everyone to choose what they enjoy. Kindly note that individual food and beverage orders will be paid for by each participant.
