Genesis-Doina Reghis-Ionescu

A special sensitivity, an admirable mastery of the painting techniques, formal discipline and the professional conscience, distinctly outline the portrait of the artist Doina Reghiș-Ionescu, in the landscape of contemporary art in Romania.

The fifty years of activity recommends her remarkable creative force: over sixty participations in national and international exhibitions, over a hundred group exhibitions and twenty personal exhibitions, the presence of a large number of works in private and public collections (including museums) in the country and abroad, to which many awards and distinctions obtained, as well as the title of doctor of visual arts are to be added.

In her creations, Doina Reghiș-Ionescu selects areas of our universe, then she recovers their energies and liberates them on new personal rhythms, building a second universe, diversified and harmonious, but at the same time, rigorous, flexible and charmingly elegant. The four primordial elements: earth, water, fire and air, their symbols and meanings, have been approached, understood, deepened and re-elaborated one by one or simultaneously, individually and in the admirable encounters of natural, earthly and cosmic forms along her creation activity. The celestial itineraries dominate the travel that the artist offers us in the present exhibition, towards the Constellations, passing through the Gate to the Light, deep, in the Astral Space.

”My creative approach started from two concepts: LIGHT and SPACE, being an attempt to retract the WAY OF MAKING THE WORLD, from its first stage, that of the creation of light and stars. I have assumed the right to conceive within the framework of the cosmic horizon, my own universe, my own constellation.” - says the artist.

In May, the beautiful month of the year, we invite you to visit GENESIS, an elegant painting exhibition, signed by one of the most delicate Ladies of Contemporary Romanian Art.
