    Gabriel Grama ART - Quarantine works

    Coronavirus affected all areas of life and art was not left behind. Artists in their own way depict a pandemic and how humanity is fighting the virus. Artist Gabriel Grama expressed his thoughts and feelings caused by a pandemic through art. He noted that coronavirus infection, which swept the whole world, was not a reason to move away from art and creativity, but, on the contrary, the opportunity to dive even deeper into it and create work to support the fight, against this threat. And he transferred the theme of coronavirus to the tip of an artistic brush ... "Quarantine works"

    People Rise or fall ?

    People Rise or fall ?

    Gabriel Grama’s exhibition "People - Rise or Fall" presents to the public a series of large and medium-sized works that were created in 2017-2018. The technique in most works is acrylic on canvas. The artist performs an "assemblage" game using thousands of human and animal figures, creating a special collage, a mosaic whose pieces are faces, ancient statues, kores and kouroi, horses, ascension scenes, struggle and anguish scenes, mythical beings and animals. The artist uses at the basis the sculptural form, to which he adds minimal color, preferably blue and dark blue. A basic source of inspiration is ancient Greece with its stories, myths as well as the Romanian pagan customs of the New Year, the rhythms and the traditional art of the Balkans and the Middle East. This versatility of the inspiration sources, which at first sight may seem inconsistent or even contradictory, essentially succeeds in overcoming the unfamiliar and heterodox by invoking the primary structural features of human existence. As a result, their engagement is accomplished thanks to the leading role that Gabriel Graham gives to his work, the pain, the struggle, the expectation of a better fate, and the dream of a better tomorrow. Its structural components, in essence, are but the same timeless motives that lead people from the beginning of their journey to the earth to an upward pyramid, always in common with traditions, customs and undisturbed cultural heritage, everyday social reflections and the primary survival instinct. In essence, this is a continuation of "Contemporary Primitivism," where also man appears to be endlessly contradicted by his basic, primitive instincts despite the rapid evolution and unceasing technological advancement.
