Through the jointing of the impulsive and loose
approach reminiscent from the abstract expressionists and the lyrical,
nostalgic, spiritual mode of being of Romanticism, the remarkable four painters
managed not only to prominently display their creative traits and originality
but also to reestablish the importance of the primary concepts which drove both
of the respective art movements. The artworks focus
on the perennial aspects of life, such as nature, and reveal the artists' inner
capacity for expression, clearly illustrated through the ‘impasto’ technique.
The
aim of the exhibited artworks is to deviate from the current formalism of
artistic manifestation and subject matter, in the pursuit of creating a new eon
as well as attempting to reemerge the simplicity of painting. In this regard,
the artists seek to recover the importance of a picturesque, melancholic,
slightly romanticized but nonetheless sober landscape, clearly a reminiscence
of Ion Andreescu, Caspar David Friedrich or Horia Bernea.
Mediated
by retrospection, the desire of the exhibiting artists is to aim towards the
tradition of the past and its flowing sources of creativity, while deliberatly
pushing aside the commonalities of the present-day art world, and acquiring a
well established and individualzed place within it.
