Alexandru Rădvan
Cancer - 21st Century, Acrylic Painting, Deviant, Expressionist, Transgressive

2007

About the Item

Cancer, 2007 Acrylic on canvas (Signed front right corner) 78 7/10 H × 118 1/10 W in 200 H × 300 W cm Alexandru Rădvan’s art is not easy to look at or to comprehend; nor is it a comfortable form of art, one that eye and soul rejoice at. On the contrary, it forces the onlooker to think, to wonder and to try to figure out answers on her or his own. "Cancer" is a work in point, perhaps the most important piece of Romanian post-1989 art. Painted in 2007, it brings into discussion both the manner of representation and the onlookers’ capacity to understand, his level of engagement and endurance. The artist wanted to comprise in one single piece of work trauma, vanity, grotesque, bestiality and sufferance, thereby inviting a thorough renewal of sensitive knowledge.
