Geta Bratescu
Invocarea desenului

16.10 - 21.11.2015

Galeria Ivan are placerea sa va invite vineri, 16 octombrie, incepand cu orele 19, la vernisajul expozitiei personale Geta Bratescu, Invocarea desenului. 

Expozitia este structurata in doua capitole artistice distincte, conectate prin practica comuna a desenului. Pentru Geta Bratescu desenul reprezinta un limbaj complementar scrisului, o activitate mentala ce sta la baza manifestarii spatiale si formale a variilor sale directii artistice: colaj, gravura, tapiserie, obiect, fotografie, film experimental, video, performance. De altfel, titlul expozitiei este preluat din subtitlul colajului fotografic Atelierul, 1979, atestand legatura inextricabila dintre desen, spatiul sau de creatie - atelierul - si procesele artistice aferente.
Geta Bratescu utilizeaza desenul in camp extins, prin experimente, exercitii si rezultate ce acceseaza de fiecare data o zona noua, neexplorata inca, fie prin desen academic, dupa model, prin desen automatic, cu ochii inchisi, prin desen cu foarfeca, in colaj, sau in desenul serial, geometric. Linia este elementul constitutiv si generator al acestui limbaj, pliul, intersectia dintre planul abstract si cel real:

Tot ce pictorul sau sculptorul realizeaza in concretul materiei, imaginea plastica, eu sunt chemata sa realizez prin aventurile liniei; doar linia sa creeze expresie si spatiu, nu linia desenului scolastic, ci linia care scrie condusa de nu stiu ce energie mentala, imaginativa. Astfel, aceste desene, fara conotatii istorice sau biografice (autobiografice), se plaseaza firesc in universul mitologic al tuturor timpurilor. (Geta Bratescu)

Geta Bratescu (n. 1926, Ploiesti, Romania) traieste si lucreaza in Bucuresti. Printre expozitiile sale recente se numara personala de la Tate Liverpool din 2015, cea de la Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, SUA, MATRIX 254 / Geta Bratescu, participarile Ãn II Palazzo Enciclopedico, La Biennale di Venezia 2013, La Triennale Paris 2012, Palais de Tokyo, si in cea de-a 12a editie a Istanbul Biennale din 2011, etc. In 2016 Hamburger Kunsthalle va prezenta o ampla retrospectiva Geta Bratescu.

Expozitia poate fi vizitata in perioada 16 octombrie - 21 noiembrie 2015, de miercuri pana sambata intre orele 11-19, iar duminica si luni pe baza de programare.

Geta Bratescu
Invocation of the Drawing

16.10 - 21.11.2015

Ivan Gallery is delighted to invite you Friday 16th of October, starting 7 pm, at the opening of Geta BrÄtescuâs solo show, Invocation of the Drawing.

The exhibition is structured on two different chapters connected through the practice of drawing. For Geta BrÄtescu drawing is a language complementary to writing, a mental activity at the bottom of every formal or spatial embodiment of her various artistic paths: collage, etching, tapestry, object, photography, experimental film, video or performance. Moreover, the title of the exhibition is based on the subtitle of the 1979 photographic collage The Studio, endorsing the strong bond between drawing, its space of creation - the studio - and its adjacent artistic process.
Geta BrÄtescu uses drawing in an expanded field, with experiments, exercises and results that each time access a new, still unexplored area, through academic drawing, by model, through automatic drawing, with the eyes closed, through drawing with scissors, in collage, or in serial, geometric drawing. The line is the generative and constitutive element of this language, the fold, the intersection of the abstract and the real planes:

Everything the painter or the sculptor accomplishes in the concreteness of matter, the plastic image, I am called upon to achieve through the adventures of the line; solely the line creating space and expression, not the line of the scholastic drawing, but the line that writes, driven by a I-donât-know-what-kind of mental, imaginative energy. Therefore these drawings, without any historical or biographical (autobiographical) connotations, naturally place themselves inside the mythological universe of all times. (Geta Bratescu)

Geta Bratescu (1926, Ploiesti, Romania) lives and works in Bucharest. Her recent exhibitions include the 2015 Tate Liverpool solo show, MATRIX 254 / Geta Bratescu 2014 solo show at Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, USA, lI Palazzo Enciclopedico, La Biennale di Venezia 2013, La Triennale Paris 2012, Palais de Tokyo, the 12th Istanbul Biennale 2011, etc. In 2016 Hamburger Kunsthalle will show an extensive Geta BrÄtescu retrospective exhibition.

The exhibition can be visited between 16 October - 21 November 2015, Wed-Sat, 11-19, Sun-Mon by appointment.
