It
is
the
Art
Section
of
the
"Christian
Tell"
County
Library.
It
was
reopened
to
the
public
on
01.08.2022,
after
being
restored
with
European
funds,
through
the
2013-2020
ROP
and
from
the
budget
of
the
Gorj
County
Council.
On
the
ground
floor
is
the
library,
which
includes
20,000
documents
(books,
albums,
magazines
from
all
fields
of
art,
etc.),
and
on
the
first
floor
is
the
"Iosif
Keber"
memorial
collection,
which
includes
objects
used
in
professional
and
personal
life
by
the
artist.
The
house
is
a
B-category
architectural
monument,
built
in
1932
according
to
the
project
of
the
Gorjean
architect,
of
Austrian
origin,
Julius
Doppelreiter,
the
one
who
ennobled
Târgu
Jiul
of
the
interbellum
period
with
his
style
of
neo-Romanian
inspiration.
Iosif
Keber
was
a
Romanian
visual
artist
who
had
a
long
artistic
life
and,
although
he
is
not
known
as
much
as
his
work,
he
worked
on
monumental
paintings
for
churches
in
Romania,
Germany,
Israel,
etc.,
along
with
numerous
easel
works,
most
of
them
exhibited
at
the
Târgu
Jiu
Art
Museum,
but
also
in
his
own
house,
which
has
become
a
memorial
house,
with
the
function
of
a
library,
as
was
the
wish
of
the
artist,
who
donated
it
to
the
County
library
after
his
departure
from
us.
The
visiting
schedule
is
from
Monday
to
Thursday,
between
13-16,
but
in
the
future
it
will
have
other
visiting
hours
-
9-17,
from
Monday
to
Sunday.
