Description

Corneliu Brudașcu is a Romanian artist whose extensive practice starting from the 1960s until today is marked by historical moments, political and social realities, and personal interests such as ballet. During the 1970s, he created vividly coloured paintings drawing on photos and magazine clippings secretly brought into the country from abroad, being one of the few Romanian artists to use pop art during communism. In a surprising manner, his later and current works explore classical themes such as landscapes, flowers, portraits and nudes. Untitled, 2016 belongs to a series of works depicting a homo-erotic imaginary inspired by dreams and poetry, where characters melt into the natural surroundings while walking, taking off their clothes or singing an instrument.

His oeuvre and teachings inspired and potentiated a younger generation of artists from Cluj, for whom he served as mentor. Brudașcu features in public collections including Centre Pompidou, Paris, Musée d’art moderne de la Ville de Paris and the National Museum of Contemporary Art, Bucharest, and had works exhibited in international exhibitions at Tate Modern, London, the Gwangju Biennale, South Korea, Plan B, Berlin, Fondation Thalie, Brussels, PS120, Berlin, Espace Niemeyer, Paris, Musée d’art moderne de la Ville de Paris, Ludwig Museum of Contemporary Art, Budapest, The National Museum of Contemporary Art (MNAC), Bucharest, the Art Encounters Biennale, Timișoara, among many others.
