Press release
Opening of the "Hermetic" exhibition
Buzau County Museum, a culture and research institution operating under the authority of Buzau County Council, hosts, during 18.05.2021 – 27.06.2021, the exhibition "Hermetic", with works signed by the artist Ion Anghel.
Well established in the world of arts, with an abundant exhibition activity, winner of numerous awards and doctor in this field, Ion Anghel exhibits at the Buzău County Museum a series of collage works, painting and picto-objects, in the exhibition "Hermetic", where he applies the concept of presentation by encapsulating his works in shop windows. Thus, they borrow from the character of the museum exhibits and from their preciousness, integrating perfectly in the concept of display here.
The works have a strong ethnographic air as the raw material used in their creation comes from the richly inspired world of the village, from objects found by chance but still following a state of permanent search fused with intuition, research and understanding from a plastic point of view of the world. The appearance and the patina of wear lead this exhibition into the universe of povera art, where Ion Anghel uses major plasticity of the found things, sometimes reaching the effect of ready-made art, but in the same measure and intervenes on them communicating directly, simple and raw.
The opening of the exhibition will take place Tuesday, May 18, 2021, starting with 11:00, at the headquarters of the Buzău County Museum.
We look forward to seeing you at the museum!
