Description
Ciprian Mureșan (b. 1977, Dej, Romania) is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans installation, drawing, video, and sculpture. He is part of a generation of artists who matured in the period of political and social instability that followed the collapse of the Eastern Bloc, and who display a deep interest in historicity and the post-utopian condition.
Mureşan’s works are traversed by a common sense of irony, used as a critical tool to deconstruct and recontextualize the artistic, literary, and cinematic cannons, employing subtle and uncanny references to the source materials through a distinct approach towards replication. Recurring in his practice throughout his career, drawing is often used by Mureșan as a way of exploring loss and visibility, and of recovering the past.
His works have been exhibited worldwide in renowned art galleries as well as at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, Tate Modern London, or the 53rd edition of the Venice Biennial.
