Description
Ion Mirea (b. 1912 in Răsucenii de Jos, Romania - d. 1987 in Paris, France) was a Romanian painter, sculptor, and poet. His first solo exhibition took place in 1938 in Bucharest, followed by a second presentation in Sibiu.
Mirea’s work gathers a vast palette of vivid colours through which he constructs an expressive figurative style with traces of cubism. Ranging from portraits to landscapes, Mirea’s compositions are both spontaneous and structured, imparting a sense of tranquility. His balanced paintings explore intimacy through the often awkward body poses of the portrayed individuals.
Throughout his life, Mirea exhibited internationally in Italy, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Romania.
