{"title":"Dimitrie Berea","description":"\u003cp\u003eDimitrie Berea (1908–1975) was a Romanian painter with an international career, known for the elegance of his portraits and his luminous landscapes, inspired by the great cities of Europe and America. Trained in the Romanian school of the early 20th century and perfected in the Mediterranean and Parisian environments, Berea refined a pictorial language situated between late Impressionism and lyrical Post-Impressionism, with decorative accents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn portraiture, the artist excelled as a \"society painter,\" capturing the expression and attitude of the model through rapid, transparent brushstrokes and warm chromatic accords. Feminine faces, silhouettes in interiors, or portraits of public figures maintain an aristocratic demeanor, coupled with a vibrant use of color that lends freshness and mobility to the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn his landscapes, Berea predominantly painted Venice, Rome, Paris, New York, and the Mediterranean coasts: canals, squares, bridges, gardens, and cliffs bathed in a fluid light. His painting breathes the atmosphere of the place, preferring the overall impression to descriptive detail. Still lifes with flowers or domestic objects complete his universe, highlighting chromatic harmonies and the rhythm of the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnically, the artist uses thin impasto, with a free and flowing brushstroke, alternating transparencies with dense accents. Color plays the main role: a luminous, \"solar\" palette that creates volume through tonal juxtapositions, not through heavy modeling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePresent in European and American exhibitions, Dimitrie Berea is remembered as a cultivated colorist, a chronicler of the urban world and elegant portraiture, capable of transforming a visual snapshot into pictorial poetry. His work, found in public and private collections, confirms the profile of a cosmopolitan artist, faithful to the beauty of light and the charm of modern life.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"dimitrie-berea-boats-on-lake-geneva-lausanne-switzerland","title":"Dimitrie Berea - Boats on the Lake in Geneva","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003esigned, dated and located lower right, \"Berea, Ouchy, (19)62\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eoil on canvas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e66 x 81 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"font-weight-bold text-uppercase\"\u003eDOCUMENTARY DATA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe work participated in the Dimitrie Berea Exhibition, N.M Acquavella Galleries, New York, 1961, and is reproduced in the exhibition catalog at cat. 29.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe work is reproduced in Mihai Săndulescu, Dimitrie Berea, Bucharest, 2016, on page 142.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePROVENANCE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eJasper52, New York\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Artiss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49870643495250,"sku":"","price":27500.0,"currency_code":"RON","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/1526\/3570\/files\/185955238_2_x.webp?v=1732823338"},{"product_id":"dimitrie-berea-a-morning-on-the-east-river-new-york","title":"Dimitrie Berea - A Morning on the East River, New York","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003esigned, dated and localized lower right, \"Berea, New York (19)64\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eoil on canvas \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e60 x 93 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePROVENANCE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eShapiro Auctions, New York.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Artiss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52468198080850,"sku":null,"price":42500.0,"currency_code":"RON","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/1526\/3570\/files\/DimitrieBerea-AMorningontheEastRiver_NewYork1.webp?v=1768310119"}],"url":"https:\/\/artiss.ro\/en\/collections\/dimitrie-berea.oembed","provider":"Artiss","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
