Ruxandra Munteanu – who, as an artist, proves to be delicate and tenacious at the same time – has known to subtly pendulate between pride and humility.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
With a sensitive richness of decorativism – nevertheless, subsumated to the note of intense expressiveness desired by the artist – these works are drawing our attention to the fact that Ruxandra Munteanu’ creation is unfolding under our eyes and that we have the chance to find out about the way a series of visual concepts evolve.
Roxana Păsculescu, “City Fantasies”, Plai Străbun, No. 31/2013, p. 17
The title of the exhibition refers to the idea of adjoining two types of artworks (decorative art and painting) on the cyma ; artworks that reflect the same ensemble of feelings, transposed into the material world, or of elements of real life transposed into the abstract or, in some places, rendered in figurative compositions.
The motivation behind the abstract works : the wish to counter-balance, by sublimation, the grey in the world we meet every day, by creating a fantastic world, with laws of its own regarding both the symbolistics and the manner the shapes are built (a gestural, rather than predetermined manner). Consequently, the works reflect a continuous quest of calm and serenity, despite the fact that, paradoxically, this quest materializes in and expresses itself by means of dynamic compositions, marked by disquiet. I intended, by realizing the figurative works, to get back to nature and to the real.

Ruxandra Munteanu’ creation had, until recently, a clear direction that sent us, focusing our eye, towards the lyrical geometric shapes she built on cardboard with acrylics or she obtained by printing on fabrics with textile dyestuffs.
With this 2013 solo exhibition at Irecson Gallery, the artist reveals the results of the research she constantly undertakes in her studio, otherwise inaccessible even to her close friends. First we are discovering that, for Ruxandra Munteanu, the figurative is a well solved temptation, and then, that the collage, as well, plays a special role in intensifying the plastic expression.
