Contemporary art uses the past by researching and investigating it. Artworks are open questions rather than artistic statements. As the ‘great narrative’ faded out of fashion, understanding began to require more than one single narrative and artists began to develop their own idioms and worlds. The powerful colors intensify or reduce the sensation of spatial movement and three-dimensionality of his works.
On the subject of his new works the artist stated: “There is not enough orange, yellow and red in the world to express the dry incandescence of the worlds that I dream about. The characters are drenched by light and drugged with brilliant colors. Shapes are irradiated by the hot atmosphere and purified, they will be tightened and clarified until they begin to resemble with figures from the beginning of the world, massive, brutal and candid in the same time. It is a hot, imperfect, human geometry. It is a hectic order of strong emotions, of feelings without hue. Everything into a torrid light.”

Alexandru Rădvan
Alexandru Rădvan was born in 1977. He grew up in Bucharest and studied from 1996 to 2000 at the National University of Art Bucharest in the class of professor Florin Mitroi. He is a lecturer at the National University of Art Bucharest, the Painting Department. His PhD thesis, "The fantastic image made by plastic means and literary means", is, like his entire creation, ample documentation and a fine commentary on ancient myths and mythologies. Alexandru Rădvan became a reference name in contemporary Romanian and international art, being interested in the way in which contemporary societies relate and interpret the mythical figures, the ancient characters and legends. His works have been presented over the years in numerous solo and group shows of which we will mention: "Island for Umberto", Anaid Art Gallery, Berlin, Germany (2020), "The Oldest Day", ARCUB, Bukarest, Romania (2019); "Partner for the Abyss", Bazis Contemporary, Cluj, Romania (2019); "The Sculptor's Studio", Museum of Art, Arad, Romania (2018); "Untochable Love" Anaid Art Gallery, Berlin, Germany (2018); "Monuments on the Move - Barbar", French Cultural Institute, Bucharest, Romania (2018); "Divine decadence", Kasteel van Gaasbeek, Gaasbeek, Belgium (2016); "Bucharest Artistic Education and Romanian Art After 1950", National Museum of Contemporary Art (MNAC), Bucharest, Romania (2015); "Badly Happy", Marina Abramović Institute West (The Performance Art Institute), San Francisco, USA (2010); "Messiahs", Modem - Center for Modern and Contemporary Art, Debrecen, Hungary (2009). His works are in important public and private collections in Romania, Germany, Belgium, Austria, Israel, France, Italy, Greece and the USA. He works and lives in Bucharest.
