Description
Constantin Flondor studied painting at the Nicolae Grigorescu Institute in Bucharest, and became a teacher at the Timișoara Fine Arts High School in 1962, the city where he currently lives and works. He is a founding member of the artistic groups 1+1+1 and Sigma 1 Group in Romania established during the period between the 1960s and the 1970s. The preoccupation for interdisciplinarity in the Sigma ideas is aligned with Flondor’s art practice, in which the continuous research of the visible and invisible relations between organic structures and geometry can be found. His interest in studying the primary elements – the air and the earth, led him to a series of large-scale drawings that reflect an integrative comprehension of the world.
Constantin Flondor has been a university professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Timișoara and an invited lecturer at the Sommerakademie Beratzhausen in Germany. His works were displayed in museums and galleries around the world including the Art Museum of Craiova, Mumok Museum of Modern Art, Vienna, the Ludwig Foundation, Volker Diehl Gallery, Berlin, Gervasuti Foundation, Venice, Richard Demarco Gallery, Edinburgh, Kalinderu Constructivist Biennial, Decorative Art Triennial, Milan.
