Description
Constantin Piliuță is a Romanian artist with a profound interest for human types and attitudes who developed the pictorial language of the line as a primary element of expression in drawing, painting, book illustration and theatre set designs. A student of the Romanian master Alexandru Ciucurencu, he preserves the bold expressivity of his tutor’s art yet he chooses to continue without emphasising colour in his oeuvre. Instead, the playful, bohemian and nonconformist Piliuță creates elegant, apparently fragile silhouettes that border abstraction and emanate an impressive strength. He captures the world in heights that dominate through sobriety and plays with the revelries of everyday life through an economy of means that evokes inner clarity and harmony.
