DESCRIPTION:The National Museum of Art of Romania invites you this Saturday
 \, June 18\, 2022\, at 18:00\, to the opening of the retrospective exhibit
 ion of paintings singed by the artist Tudor Zbârnea.\nThe extensive exhibi
 tion of Tudor Zbârnea\, staged for the first time at MNAR\, includes a sel
 ection of 59 paintings\, with various themes\, made in over 30 years of cr
 eation. Some of these works have been awarded in various national and inte
 rnational competitions.\nThe curator of the exhibition is the art critic M
 aria Bilașevschi and the commissioner appointed by MNAR is Carmen Cernat.
 \nTudor Zbârnea (born December 29\, 1955\, Nisporeni\, Republic of Moldova
 ) is one of the most original contemporary visual artists\, with a singula
 r discourse based on expressions of form and color that contain adherence 
 to the artistic means decanted from the second half of the twentieth centu
 ry until the moment. His discourse is based on the expressiveness of the p
 ictorial matter that acquires the force of the broad gesture\, recalling t
 he best neo-expressionist examples\, but without turning abstract\, the re
 presentation of the human body always remains present\, detectable\, even 
 in the most ardent turmoil of color.\nHe graduated the Republican School o
 f Fine Arts „I. E. Repin ”\, Chisinau and the“ George Enescu” National Uni
 versity of Arts\, Iași\, Romania\, Faculty of Fine Arts\, Painting Departm
 ent. He has participated in over 300 representative exhibitions in the cou
 ntry and abroad\, with over 35 personal exhibitions. The artist's works ar
 e in numerous and prestigious public and private collections. He is the di
 rector of the National Museum of Art of Moldova and the initiator of the I
 nternational Painting Bienniale\, Chisinau\, Republic of Moldova.\nHe has 
 won numerous awards and distinctions\, among which we mention: in 2021 the
  Anniversary Medal 'Centenary of the Great Union' awarded by the President
  of Romania\; 2017 “Emeritus for Polish Culture” Badge of Honor\, awarded 
 by the Polish Ministry of Culture and Heritage\; 2016 Gold Medal 'French M
 erit and Devotion'\, Paris\; “Vicolo Poldo” Trophy\, 35th edition\, Como\,
  Italy\; 1997 Honorary Diploma from the European Academy of Arts\, Brussel
 s\, etc.\n***\nThe National Museum of Art of Romania (MNAR) has since 2016
  a privileged relationship with the National Museum of Art of Moldova (MNA
 M)\, between the two museums being concluded a collaboration agreement tha
 t led to the organization in 2017 of the exhibition 'Stefan Luchian betwee
 n tradition and modernity ”with works from the MNAR patrimony at MNAM in C
 hisinau and the exhibition“ Mihail Grecu - Between metaphor and objective 
 reality ”at MNAR in 2018.\n'The cultural relations between the Republic of
  Moldova and Romania have a new dimension through this exhibition\, which 
 presents in the most representative art museum in our country a synthesis 
 of the work of one of the most important painters of today in the Republic
  of Moldova and also from Romania. Tudor Zbârnea is not only a painter of 
 great artistic strength\, he is also the director of the most important ar
 t museum across Prut\, which in its cultural programs has privileged the p
 resentation of contemporary art in Romania through its best examples 'says
  Călin Stegerean\, general director at the MNAR.\n'Tudor Zbârnea links the
  past to the present\, modeling from myth\, from folklore\, from the ontol
 ogical dowry of humanity\, man\, subject and object of a journey to the ce
 nter of being\, to the very question in the Psalms:' Lord\, what is man to
  take\, Do you know him? ” His characters start from the light\, rooted in
  an archetypal prototype that marks over three decades of evolution\, synt
 heses and decantations\, years in which the asceticism of the expression h
 as accumulated sadness\, drama\, humility\, anxiety and reconciliation of 
 what is generically called human destiny. ”Shows the curator Maria Bilașev
 schi in the presentation text of the exhibition.\nThe exhibition can be vi
 sited on the ground floor of the National Gallery of the National Museum o
 f Art of Romania until September 4\, 2022. http://mnar.arts.ro/en/componen
