Prezentare Demers Artistic

“ Prezenta constanta in expozitiile de tapiterie personale si de grup in ultimii ani, in care s-a manifestat cu discretia data de exigenta autoimpusa, Traian Stefan Boicescu se remarca prin dozajul atent dintre fond / mesaj si forma / vocabular , prin vibratia clasica indusa de epurarile succesive cu care opereaza si care, paradoxal, imbogatesc formele. Parcursul de la analitic la sintetic este vizibil in convertirea meandrelor delicate ale unei cochilii sau ale unei structuri vegetale in volute expresive sau trasee frante ce pastreaza identitatea originara a motivului, artistul reusind sa revalorizeze expresivitatea elementelor unui univers inspirator devenit familiar. Decorativismul tapiseriilor sale este sustinut de exercitiile cromatice rafinate care includ gamele ample ale unei palete restranse sau combinatiile armonioase ale complementarelor.
Pedanteria compozitiilor- inclusa ca atentie distribuita egal asupra fiecarui element al creatiilor textile si care nu altereaza “ suculenta” plastica- o reintalnim in picturile in ulei ale artistului. Majoritar peisaje panoramice si plonjate din zona mediteraneana (artistul continuand involuntar si evident, in alt stil buna traditie a catorva din plasticienii romani interbelici ce au avut ocazia de-a adasta pe acolo), picturile coaguleaza si reflecta impresiile vizuale ale unui spirit liric bine strunit. Prin traseele grafice nervoase si angulare cu care descrie digurile si cladirile profilate intre cer si apa (suprafete compacte de culoare vibrata discret) lucrarile in ulei capata un plus de forta si consistenta, un adaos de masculinitate la care contribuie tipul de constructie riguroasa a formelor. ”

Prezentare Demers Artistic

” Traian Ştefan Boicescu has been lately a constant presence at both personal and group tapestry exhibitions; his participation was, however, a discrete one, because of his self-imposed exigence. The artist’s work is remarkable by the careful balance between background and message, as well as form and vocabulary and by the classical vibration given by the successive purifications that he uses and that paradoxically improve the forms. The transformation from analytical to synthetic can be seen in the drawing of some shell’s delicate turnings or in some vegetable structure’s expressive forms of spread traces which preserve the initial identity of the motive, the artist being able to convey new expressive values to a familiar universe. The decoration of his tapestries is enhanced by the refined chromatic which includes either only a reduced number of colours or harmonious combinations.
The pedantry of his works – that can be observed in each element of his textile creations and which doesn’t spoil the plastic „pleasure” is to be seen again in the artist’s oil paintings. Being especially panoramic landscapes from the Mediterranean area (the artist obviously and unwillingly continuing the good tradition of some Romanian artists of the interwar period, whom he met there), the paintings put together and reveal the visual impressions of a well-trained lyrical spirit. Due to the nervous and angular graphic sketches that he uses to depict the docks and the buildings rising between the sky and the water (compact surfaces of discretely vibrated colour), his oil-painting seem stronger and more consistent.”
