Alexandru Rădvan is a graduate of National University of Arts in Bucharest and assistant professor within the faculty of painting at the same university. His artistic creation exceeds over a decade, during which the artist exhibited in  Romanian galleries and museums as well as abroad. Having an extremely coherent and well designed artistic program, the art of Alexandru Rădvan excites the consciousness and memory of the viewer or art collector, his works being displayed in numerous international group exhibitions and solo shows that were unfailingly organized over the years. He exhibited in Hungary, Germany, France, and Luxembourg alongside well known artists as Andres Serrano, Georg Baselitz, Bill Viola etc.
Alexandru Rădvan’s presence at the contemporary art gallery AnaidArtGallery is already known for the art lovers and professionals. Since 2005, Alexandru Rădvan is represented by AnaidArtGallery, being one of the most important Romanian artists of his generation.
The exhibition “Epic”, as the artist confessed “is about Ulysses and I, Alexandru Rădvan, about the strong relation between us. For me, Ulysses is not a mythological character, he really exists, he is alive and lives in me since I was a child and I was being read from the book «The Adventures of Ulysses»”.
The total identification of the artist Alexandru Rădvan with the Ulysses character generates an ample series of drawings, cement reliefs, paintings and large size sculptures. They underline a personal odyssey which reflects the moral and physical portrait, their deeds and relations regarding the environment in a relative objectivity.
This time, the chosen character of Alexandru Rădvan is not the subject of a permanent questioning, a continuous hacking as he declared: “It is for the first time when I love my character. I don’t have a critique, a polemic relationship with him,  he even makes part of my everyday life.”
AnaidArtGallery invites you to make an incursion in contemporary art from Monday until Friday: 11:00 a.m. – 07:00 p.m. and Saturday:  10:00 a.m. – 06:00 p.m.
