Additional info:
Marin Gherasim was a painter, writer, professor and an important figure of Romanian Neo-orthodox art. His work was deeply inspired by his fascination with the beauty of Bucovinean monasteries he saw as a child. Along with artists including Vasile Gorduz, Horia Bernea, Sorin Dumitrescu, he is one of the founding members of 9+1 Group created as a reaction to the communist regime and its artistic ideology. As the systematic destruction of churches was carried out in Romania until 1989, Gherasim recreated them symbolically in his paintings. He saw painting as a confessional act, in which the work of time, universal entropy and the traumas of history would find their place. The geometry of church architectural elements and symbols such as the apse, the gate, the road or the church tower, represent the sacred constituents of all his work dedicated to remembrance.
