Alexandru Radvan

Alexandru Radvan's (\*1977) new monograph Mythical Flesh presents his varied practice and gathers paintings, collages, temperas, sculptures, and installations of the past five years. In the different series, all named after fundamental myths, mythical and mythological characters appear, taking the shape of ancient goddesses, titans, centaurs, hunters, or explorers. For Radvan, the reference to these myths of humanity equals an analysis of the present and forms the foundation of his work. The rich survey publication is completed by essays on Radvan's artistic development by Diana Dochia and Mark Gisbourne.
