Bucharest School
Tradition, love, betrayal
Silvia Rogozea
"The exhibition will take the form of a self-reflection on the identity / identities of the visual art scene of Bucharest in the last 30 years, while contextualizing the center-margin and canonical-peripheral positions / oppositions in the master-pupil relations, manifestations, currents and groups. Works by artists who graduated from the National University of Arts in Bucharest after 1990, but also by professors and mentors from that period (Corneliu Baba, Ioana Bătrânu, Horia Bernea, Geta Brătescu, Alexandru Chira, Ion Grigorescu, Henry Mavrodin, Florin Mitroi, Teodor Moraru, Vladimir Șetran, Aurel Vlad, etc.), who work in the Romanian capital most of the time, but also abroad will be presented in the exhibition. The selection consists of artists belonging to the young or still young generation, formed after the fall of the communist regime, including Obie Platon, Nicolae Comanescu, Suzana Dan, Dumitru Gorzo, Nicu Ilfoveanu, Gili Mocanu Lea Rasovszky, Alexandru Rădvan, Roman Tolici, Ștefan Ungureanu, Mihai Zgondoiu.
