Summary/Abstract: This article presents and reflects upon an art project that took place in 2016 at Lateral ArtSpace and the Common Space at Fabrica de Pensule (Paintbrush Factory) in Cluj-Napoca, and ODD, Bucharest, Romania, followed by the issue of a publication, organised by English artist Giles Eldridge and Romanian artist Delia Popa, and the Bucharest basedArts Education organisation ArtCrowd. The description of the project is followed by an overview of notions of artistic success in different cities, and the perceived differing dynamics of the art worlds of Cluj, Bucharest and London, ending with the authors` personal conclusions on the possible discussions engendered by the project.
