Art, Dan Colcer







DAN COLCER
Romanian artist, born in Hunedoara, Transylvania in 1976 and established in United States in since 2006. 1999-2000 - Cairo University, Department of Archaeology, Cairo - Egypt.
1994-1999 - University of Arts, Department of Ceramics, Cluj-Napoca - Romania. He has exhibited in many  group shows in Romania, America and many other countries. Exhibited in  Art Festivals, Art Camps around the world.
A Member of Romanian Artists Union since 2000 Work is hung in  museums and private collections in Sweden, Holland, Hungary, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, Romania, France, United States... This man is a prolific worker, he produces photography, ceramics, graphic arts, graphic design, web design, experience-performance arts, installation, murals, and of course PAINTINGS..............as shown here. These paintings are almost, but not quite, cartoonish, or have a comic book look about them. On the surface many of them seem bright, colourful and pleasing to they eye. On closer inspection they feel dark and brutal. I think this man is talented and produces work that is not easily defined.
See more of his collection of paintings, ceramics and photographs here

Very fresh and dramatic work. And I can see the theme colours that are opposites on the spectrum: the use of blue with orange and red with green. A strong use of line too.

yeah more your thing than mine really, but some of these are really good, I especially like the forth one down, under (1994-1999 - University of Arts, Department of Ceramics, Cluj-Napoca - Romania.)
It's less figurative and more abstract than the others.

Interesting art. It sometimes seems like a hybrid between Bosch and Dali. Do you know if these are oils or acrylics?
On his web site it says ''ACRILYC AND CHINA INK ON CANVAS''

And some of them are the kind that ask you to see how many other figures you can see in the picture. I'd be interested in seeing some more of his work. Thanks, Loretta.
