Présentation

Radu Comsa was born in 1975 in Sibiu (Romania), he lives and works in Cluj-Napoca (Romania)

Incorporating divagations, extractions, references, Radu Comsa's 'transcriptions' (from one material to another, from one shape to another, from one conceptual frame to another) are referring to the art object as a form of intellectual replica of the artist's own design of thoughts. His diagrammatic transcriptions (plates of cast concrete or mixed-media painting-objects informed by his interest in modernist architecture, concrete poetry, and atonal music) operate as visual morphemes expected to collide and further release extra meaning.

With his most recent painting-series - "Golden Ratio" - the artist tries to transform the quantitative rate indicators of arithmetic, the science of numbers, into qualitative colour-tastes. He uses methods doser to modern technological solutions, such as printing, the chromo-phototype, or serigraphy. Despite all appearances, he paints his work by hand, with extreme attention, similarly to the technique of batik painting. He disregards traditional painterliness and uses not an oily, mixed paste, but touches his canvas with a sublimated, more conceptual colour vision: he paints the diluted but unmixed, pure primary colours in a set proportion over one another, the colour-derivating process coming into being by colour-shifting, chromatic aberration.

Radu Comsa's works has been included in exhibitions including among others Arken Museum, Copenhagen; Center for Contemporary Art Ujazdowski Castle, Varsaw; Mucsarnok / Kunsthalle Budapest, Budapest; Marianne Boesky, New York; Peles Empire, London; Trafo Gallery, Budapest; Spazio A, Pistoia; Lucie Fontaine, Milan & Bali; Prague Biennial & Timisoara Biennial.
