Description
Aurel Bulacu (b. 1947, Craiova, Romania) is a Romanian visual artist who works primarily in painting, drawing and other graphic art techniques. In 1972, he graduated from the Graphics Department of the Nicolae Grigorescu Institute in Bucharest, where he later became a professor.
Throughout his career, the artist has cultivated symbolically complex visual poetics. In his works, the human body often appears fragmented or distorted, being sometimes explored in relation to mythical motifs. Bulacu’s works can thus be said to cultivate a postmodern approach to surrealist modes of representation, relating subconscious desires and phobias to aesthetic experience.
Bulacu’s works have been presented in both solo and group exhibitions in countries such as Italy, Japan, South Korea, Switzerland, Romania,and the United Kingdom. His works are part of important museum collections in Bucharest, Oradea, Tulcea and Constanța. Bulacuhas received many awards locally in Romania for his artistic achievements.
