Colors On Canvas

The last exhibition of the year brought some amazing artworks to the visitors and I can assure you, it was more than inspiring. You can read about the first part of my experience here. Today I'd like to show you some more amazing works, to those that are interested in art.

Krisztina Molnár - Old Town

In my last post, I showed you one painting from Krisztina Molnár, which was absolutely amazing. This one is just as amazing as the other one. Featuring old life is always fascinating and what makes this painting more valuable in my eyes is the gradient colors.

Mariana Serban - Wonder 2

The particularity of this painting is that the frame is also painted on. It's not unheard of, but not very common these days either.

Mariana Serban - Wonder 1

The same concept in different colors. This time, the person wondering is depicted in blue, with a very nice shadow behind. This allows the colors to be highlighted. It's a nice interpretation.

This was an amazing idea. There are two row of paintings from two different artists. The upper 3 are from Radu Florea and are called Salt.

The second row is from László Botár and the paintings have different titles, I suppose it's not a series. The titles are, from left to right: Under Pressure, Scar and Chance.

I don't know who's idea was to create this group made of the six paintings, but it's a brilliant one in my opinion. The overall picture looks great and would shine on any wall. If I were to choose between the two, I'd go with the upper row, the blue series.

What makes me like it so much is those lovely colors the artist decided to use and the concept is also an original one.

*Mircea Albu - Who Am I?

It's not the first time I saw this painting, I remembered I've seen it before, at the same gallery, almost at the same spot. It's indeed a mystery, what the artwork represents, but it's a good one.

Lucia Calinescu - Echos

This was where things started to get interesting. Again, what caught my eyes at first glance was the colors. Most likely you remember I said it before, that I'm not a huge fan of strong colors, or too colorful paintings, but this is different. What makes it different is the thin line and the mix of colors.

Now let's do an exercise. How would you paint an echo, if you'd be tasked with the job? How do you vision an echo? Can you vision it at all? I would paint it like a decreasing something in size, but that's how far I can go as I have no additional ideas. However, are you sure the echo is just one thing? I think the voice is multiplying as it is spreading, but I'm not sure.

Back to the painting, I can see the each color as one version of the voice, and all spreading in every direction. I love it!

Lucia Calinescu - Atlantis

Crina Stanescu - Column XXV

At first, I was expecting this to be a flower bouquet, but it wasn't.

Crina Stanescu - Column XXVII

It was an abstract series, but only two artworks were exhibited.

Alexandru Serban - The Gate 2

This painting gave me deja vu feelings. Not because I've seen it before, but because I've seen countless gates like this. This style is typical for Saxon regions and some cities, towns are lucky to still have a good few. One of such city is Medias, where there's the Johannes Honterus street, that connects the old, historical city center, with one of the bastions. This specific street has several gates like this as the inhabitants of the street were Saxons. Even the colors are a match. if you go to that street, I bet you can find a similar gate with similar colors. Unfortunately, just like Saxons in Transylvania, these gates have become a rarity.

Alexandru Serban - Barbarism

Looking at a painting and trying to guess what you see is always a game. Sometimes it's a struggle, other times it's fun, depending on the situation. When I first looked at this painting, the first thing that came to my mind was blood. I could see how blood is spread, not that I've seen such quantity of blood spread all over the place in real life. Then i looked at the title, which kind of confirmed what I thought. Having no experience in the matter, makes me believe the blood patter could be authentic.

Gábor Kentelki - Burning Colors

Perfect title for such an colorful creation in my opinion.

László Nemes - Island

This one was like a puzzle for me, that I will never be able to solve. I can see the island, no problem with that, but the rest ... It's interesting though and very original as well.

This is it for today and you know the drill. Let me know what you see, which one you like the most, if any :)
