Liviu Brezeanu
Critical References
Critical text, Gheorghe Vida, Bucharest, January 19th, 1993
"What is required, from the very beginning, for a first touch that can be tactile with these works, mostly carved in wood, is the firmness of the craft, the solidity of the volume architecture, with the intelligent incorporation of the voids, through the trapping and penetration following a tortuous route, carefully thought out in advance. We singularize in this respect, in the "Vegetal" cycle, with the pieces blurring the line between the decorative and the phytomorphic, defining, we believe, for its conception of space integration. His styling, drawing their echoes from Henry Moore, centred on the human figure, singular or double, reflect with the same force a coherent, balanced thought in terms of fine arts, where the detail is never isolated nor seen as a decisive factor in an ensemble that tends to a timeless silence undisturbed by the convulsions of the moment, even when the body is almost reduced to the sign with the more accentuated empowerment of the volume language, purged of superfluous connotations, thus reaching another stage of exploring the expressive possibility.
These are just a few landmarks on an artistic road that we always want to be relative in the ascending line and which deserves to be watched with confidence".
