Description

With an unmistakable remarkable symbolic language, Sorin Ilfoveanu draws and paints in an all-consuming freedom of expression through suggestion and mystic transference. His universe is encrypted in primitive signs from the subconscious matrix of archaic heritage and with a certain nobleness and refinement characteristic of the model of the Byzantine icon. He discovers his originality of style under the guidance of Corneliu Baba and is part of a generation of Postwar Romanian artists, such as Ștefan Câlția and Sorin Dumitrescu, who promoted a renewed sense of spirituality in relation to the materialism of contemporary culture. He participated in the Venice Biennale in 1987 and his works are exhibited in important museums and included in private collections around the world, from Paris to Tokyo, from Bucharest to Oslo and Perugia.
