On the occasion of the European Capital of Culture \u2013 Timi\u0219oara 2023, the National Museum of Art in Timi\u0219oara hosts the most important and comprehensive exhibition ever produced in Eastern Europe dedicated to Romanian-born surrealist artist Victor Brauner \u2014 the very first retrospective in his country of origin.<\/p>\n
One hundred and twenty years after the birth of Victor Brauner in the Kingdom of Romania and curated by Camille Morando, this retrospective exhibition aims to work as a tribute to this central figure of surrealism, still lesser known in his native country. The curator selected over 100 paintings, drawings, sculptures, illustrations, and documents covering Brauner\u2019s entire artistic career, from Bucharest to Paris, from the 1920s to the early 1960s. All these invaluable works come together for the first time with an exhibition design signed by architect Attila Kim.<\/p>\n
This exhibition benefits from an exceptional loan from the Centre Pompidou, Paris, with about forty works completed by a dozen works from the museums of Marseille and Saint-Etienne, as well as about twenty works preserved in Romania, in museums and private collections. This retrospective thus presents the artist\u2019s entire career, from the 1920s to the 1960s, and his creation according to various media (painting, drawing, object, sculpture).<\/p>\n
