Artistic references
FLORIN PRODAN was brought in our attention with his first personal art exhibitions in Bo-
tosani, Piatra Neamt and Iasi, all these validating a call, the native calling for the universe of
colors. It is a joy for any art critique to have the privilege of such a meeting. These exhibitions
represent the core values of our artistic traditions, a certain visual dialogue with nature and also
that of modeling philosophy through humanistic values.

Natures greatest lesson becomes essential for FLORIN PRODAN: that of building an artistic
vision, a manner of understanding and that of transfiguring reality. In fact the attachment to the
miracle of reality is related to the direct experience of this painter of “plain air” even if, beyond
sensation, this is a science of plastic.

FLORIN PRODAN is well seen by the viewers through the quality of the colors carefully spread
on the painting blade, generous and tender, melancholic and vital, subtle and unctuous. This cre-
ation matches perfectly with emotions and delicate feelings; similar to Lucian Blaga, this painter
doesn’t want to break world’s light crown, but to touch it with his looks, then seeing it through the
inner eye of the creator – a noble reconstruction of the being in a supreme gesture of love. FLO-
RIN PRODAN evolved
from an art exhibition to another, his artistic
stamps gaining more and more distinct sounds
announcing a natural growing-up.
These ways of saying serve also the quality of
plastic thinking. The time of harvest is here.

ART CRITIQUE – MEMBER

A.I.C.A.

VALENTIN CIUCA, 2003

FLORIN PRODAN is a painter of vibration,

where nature means rhythm, a plastic rhythm
within cosmic vibration. His art can be from
anywhere, his image reconstructing nature,
keeping in mind not only the essential but also
the affective.

ART CRITIQUE
LUCIAN STROCHI

FLORIN PRODAN won his own place in the

artistic world. His paintings have a warm color,
always present to the eye: that of building a
poetry in colors.

Artistic references

Figurative, being descriptive with essential tendencies of shapes and underlying col-
ors by juxtaposing grays and pure backgrounds, FLORIN PRODAN uses nature as
a pretext to express his sensibility. FLORIN PRODAN is a lyric, each of his paint-
ings has a specific poetry.

PROFESSOR
H O R AT I U I OA N L A S C U

Attracted to the Moldavian landscape, FLORIN PRODAN succeeds to transfigure in

a convincing and sensitive way to bring to the viewer the miracle of the reality, but
also his soul’s debate. It’s such a warmth in his action: the winter landscapes succeed
to overwhelm actions under the empire of such ancestral childhood memories.
