Description
Gheorghe Vânătoru (b. 1908 - d. 1983) was a Romanian painter, known for his remarkable use of colour. He studied painting at the Academy of Fine Art in Bucharest with esteemed artists Nicolae Tonitza, Francisc Șirato, and Gheorghe Petrașcu.
The works of Vânătoru include portraits, cityscapes, natural landscapes, and still life. Urban Scene proves the artist’s skilful use of colour and play of light in constructing emotional ambiences. The absence of human presence in the painting augments a moment of peacefulness and enjoyable stillness within the city.
Throughout his career Vânătoru achieved international recognition, exhibiting in Venice, Odessa, Memphis, Beirut, Tokyo, or Tel Aviv. His works are part of private and public collections in countries such as Romania and the US.
