“Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.“(Pablo Picasso)
HellO, WOrld!
Maybe it was the light. Or the silence from the gallery. A big hall, from Piata Mica, with white walls and complitely empty. And there, I think I’ve meet God for the first time.
I was a little kid and I don’t remember how the paintings looked like, or the name of the artist, because I was totally fascinated by the gallery itself. And I was happy. Later on, I started to look at the paintings hanging on the wall. And because there we’re no one in there, I’ve begun a strange dialogue with them. Without words, it was like a dialogue of the deaf. But I started to understand. I felt that I had a crush on art. Because art teached me that world is not only about black and white, or grey, it’s full with colors, and everyone see this world complitely different. But this world is the same, for everyone. Even if you love the surrealism, the impressionism, Da Vinci, Frida Kahlo, Grigorescu or Sabin Balasa. It’s love.
And that love is still here, after thousands of paintings seen by me, all over the world. It never fade. Thant’s why I’m so excited every year, when the White night of the art galleries is getting closer. And this year it will happen on April 24. Forty galleries and thirty-two alternative venues will open their gates on that night putting together for the public a dynamic program of exhibitions and events devoted to contemporary art. So, if you are looking for love, maybe you will find it then. You just have to find the right gallery. Starting from HERE.

HellO, WOrld!
Și acea dragostea este încă aici, după mii de picturi văzute de mine, peste tot în lume. Si nu se estompeaza niciodată. De aceea sunt atat de emotionat in fiecare an, atunci când Noaptea albă a galeriilor de artă se apropie. Iar în acest an se va întâmpla pe 24 aprilie, cand patruzeci de galerii și treizeci și doua de locuri alternative isi vor deschide porțile pentru a pune în fata publicului un program dinamic de expoziții și evenimente dedicate artei contemporane. Eu zic sa nu o ratati, pentru ca e posibil ca si voi sa va indragostiti. Trebuie doar sa gasiti galeria de arta potrivita. Iar in cautarea ei, puteti incepe chiar de AICI.
LOve,
O.
