FINISSAGE & CATALOGUE RELEASE

ARTISTS

VINCENZO BIANCHI

It is not easy to introduce Vincenzo Bianchi because of his versatile activity that touches all visual arts, from painting to sculpture, from graphics to video-art and graphic techniques; any plastic, material and materialising means is congenial to him and now he takes us by surprise with the use of the laser beam. He has been the first to test it not only on traditional materials, such as marble, iron, etc, but even on slabs and tablets, as it were a burin, creating ipso facto either the very thin incision of the etching or the heavier and thicker mark of the poker-work.

SORIN ILFOVEANU

Sorin Ilfoveanu (b. 1946, Campulung-Muscel) is one of Romania's most important contemporary artists. He graduated in 1970 from the class of Corneliu Baba and went on to become, in turn, head of the Department of Painting, Dean of the Faculty of Fine Arts and Rector of the National University of Arts in Bucharest. His creation, in drawing and painting, is recognizable by the intensely personal style that explores existential themes, symbolically-cripted in his already iconic characters, with Byzantine visual sources and a subtle primitive stylistic horizon. His most notable international exhibitions include the Venice Biennale in 1987, along with presentations in Norway, Holland, France, Austria, Italy, Germany, Greece, Chile, Chile, South Korea and Japan. His work can be found in major museums and private collections around the world, from Paris to Tokyo, from Bucharest to Oslo and Perugia. 

ADRIAN ILFOVEANU

Adrian Ilfoveanu (b. 1971, Pitesti) is known for his sculptures in various media - wood, marble, bronze or synthetic resins, depicting anthropomorphic or zoomorphic subjects and figures essentialized. A graduate of the National University of Arts in Bucharest, in 2003 he won the National Project Competition for the re-design of the plinth of the former Lenin's statue "Monument to the Freedom of the Word", and since 2007 he has been creating the trophy for the GOPO Awards, the most notable awards of the Romanian film industry. His work has been exhibited in the USA, Norway, the United Arab Emirates, Italy, Germany, Denmark, India, Finland and Germany.

NICU ILFOVEANU

Nicu Ilfoveanu (b. 1975, Pitesti) works in the field of photographic and film imagery, as well as art publications, and is credited with a particular position within contemporary Romanian photography. He graduated from the National University of Arts in Bucharest, where he currently teaches a discipline related to photography. His works are characterized by the unexpected and unpredictable interplay between the personal and the documentary, the sublime and the trivial, the obvious and the hidden. His recent work includes exhibitions in Spain, France, Germany, Poland, United Kingdom, Italy, Serbia, Norway, Austria, Japan and China.
