The painting by Alexandru Rădvan is about our moments of 'respiro' about the minutes/seconds when we notice the little things or gestures that surround us that are not of significant importance in our lives, but that nevertheless, in the end, define who we are as persons and how we live. In this new cycle of works, the artist captures blinks, moments, and states. Referring to this series of paintings, Alexandru Rădvan writes: "I am seduced by the idea of creating something beautiful, a peaceful atmosphere, with beautiful things, but made a little rough, brutal, ungentle, with relatively simple, primitive, almost sordid gestures and acts, and all these "rough" and somehow unfinished things become beautiful and delicate when they meet. I am also fascinated by the seconds in which nothing happens, in which a man and a woman simply stand next to each other, in which the gaze hovers aimlessly, in which the teeth have not yet sunk into the apple skin, in the second before the wave breaks and only the dogs wag their tails without making a sound. And I'd like to remember the millions of seconds that make up life between what happens, as something precious."
The artwork was exhibited in the museum solo show "Days of a Colossus" from 2023.

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.

By Robert Marchessault
Located in Montreal, Quebec
My painting is an inquiry. I make images as a way of responding to experiences that are important to me. Experiences that help me to understand why I’m in this world often happens when I am outside in large open spaces.
Painted images act as a tool. I respond to the spaces my art suggests. That response is usually non-verbal. I am interested in the experience of non-duality that “getting lost” in big spaces can sometimes produce for me. The paintings have gone through a range of artistic treatments with the recent years seeing a focus on space, light, textures, atmosphere and distance.
My landscape paintings are made from memory, not from on-site drawings or photographs. I use memory as a filtering agent to remove non-essential visual elements. When a work is successful, it must have a sense of poetry.
There is nothing “new...
