Indepth Arts News: "Alex Calinescu at the Albers Foundation" 2006-10-06 until 2006-10-28 Sarah Myerscough Fine Art London, , UK United Kingdom
Indeed, the almost meditative trance induced when confronted by Calinescus works clearly reflects the influence of these removed and tranquil surroundings. Circular forms resonate off a monochrome background creating the kinetic sensation of a pulsating rhythm that compels the viewer to enter into the work, heightening ones senses through a visual experience that is all encompassing. Calinescus work has also been accredited with musical qualities and it is interesting to know that the artist herself has a strong musical background that has clearly added an extra dimension to her work. By using simple forms and working in series, Calinescu progressively develops her theme, which can be a modulation or total transition from what has gone before.
In this series Alex Calinescus work has reached a new level of purity, having progressed by stages from representation, through expression, to greater abstraction and now the pared down line.
Alex Calinescu has shown intern ationally since leaving the Royal Academy Schools in 1992 and has a major forthcoming exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Bucharest in 2007.
