Ioan Sbârciu is one of Romania's most significant painters, renowned for his monumental works and transformative impact on the country's art education system during his tenure as a professor and dean at the University of Art and Design in Cluj-Napoca. His artistic achievements are highlighted by his large-scale paintings, including the 4x6 meter works currently exhibited in Venice at Squero Castello, during the Venice Art Biennale 2024, and the impressive 5x30 meter painting displayed at the MNAC Museum in Bucharest in 2019-2020.
Curated by Alessandro Possati and Alexandru Constantin Chituță and organized in collaboration with Zuecca Projects (Venice, Italy), this exhibition celebrates Sbârciu's great influence on the artistic landscape of Romania and showcases his extensive body of work inside one of the most ancient museums of the country, with artworks by Jan van Eyck, Hans Memling, Jacob Jordaens, Lucas Cranach, Pieter Brueghel, Lorenzo Lotto and Titian in its collection.
