Colorful
Abstractions Exhibition in Lisbon
The
exhibition Colorful Abstractions, by
the artists Sînziana Romanescu, Lelia Rus Pîrvan and their guest, Alexandru
Şerbănescu, will be held at the Escola Superior de Educaḉao, from the
Polytechnic Institute in Lisbon, Portugal, from 17th of April to 19th of April
2018.
The
exhibition takes place at the same time as the workshop that the two artists,
university lecturers at "Ovidius" University in Constanta will
support at the aforementioned Faculty. The workshop, titled The Romanian Glass Painting Between
Tradition and Innovation, will present to the students of Lisbon the
popular painting on glass bringing this old technique in the contemporary
period. An exhibition with a close theme, called The Sacred Space was opened
on 28th of March at the Constanta Art Museum.
The
works of the three artists to be exhibited in Lisbon share the marine theme and
the taste for the experiment. Sinziana Romanescu starts from the idea of
primordial elements and imagines a world in which water, rendered in mixed
technique or watercolor, is the reason for the continuous transformation, birth
and mirroring. For Lelia Rus Pîrvan, the terrestrial element is predominant,
the ocher of the sand referring to the idea that we are all sand in the great
ocean of life, while Alexandru Şerbănescu's works are made in the cyanotype
technique on glass and they are centered
near the symbol of the seagull, from the city where it comes, but also the
symbol of the air.
