About the Item
Meridional VII, 2013
Tempera on Paper
27.55 H x 39.37 W in.
70 H x 100 W cm
The series "Meridional" from 2014 shows colorful landscapes under some occasional exemptions.
The trees and plants are abstracted to simple round shapes, while the color is often reversed up to the photographic negative. Thus, the sky is red instead of blue and the green plants are yellow, blue or black.
The monochrome colorfulness of the individual elements blends with those of the same color, while the shapes occasionally bear bold contours of different colors. The colorful play of colors fascinates and irritates at the same time, due to abstract forms or objects, which do not fit real-life into the figure-less happening. For example, an over-sized pair of scissors appears in the sky above the landscape.
The title of the series "Meridional" is borrowed from geographical references and is found approximately in nature or landscape depictions.

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).
