{"title":"Sandu Daria","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA multidisciplinary artist, he worked in various fields of art, among which sculpture, painting, drawing, ceramics, scenographic design, and theater costume design stand out. He began his academic training in Paris in 1926, in the field of law. However, his interest in art and the artistic atmosphere of Paris introduced Sandu Darie to the world of art as a self-taught artist. During this period, the artist combined his training in France with his participation in progressive magazines and newspapers in Romania and France, where he created humorous drawings, and in 1940 he enlisted in the French army as a volunteer, arriving a year later in Cuba. On the island, he began to create humorous drawings, which gained great renown, making him a benchmark artist starting in 1942. From 1949, the year of his first exhibition in New York, his artistic relationship with Gyula Kosice, founder of the \"Arte Madí\" group, began, thus becoming part of the group's exhibitions and publishing articles in the group's magazine. Between 1958 and 1961 he was a member of the renowned group of artists \"Diez Pintores Concretos\", and in 1964 he made, together with Enrique Pineda Barnet, the documentary \"Cosmorama. Spatial Poem No. 1\", an experimental study of forms and structures in motion, and in the 1970s his production followed a line of projects for urban architectural environments using kinetic art as its language. Sandu Darie Laver is one of the most remarkable figures of Cuban art. He is one of the main precursors of abstraction in its lyrical and geometric aspects, in addition to being one of the greatest representatives of kinetic art. Among his many recognitions, it is necessary to highlight the Honorable Mention of the VIIII Salón de Pintura y Escultura del Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes de La Habana in 1956 and his appointment as Honorary Member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague (Netherlands) in 1975, as well as his presence in private collections around the world, and in institutions such as the Casa de las Américas in Havana (Cuba) and MoMA in New York, among others.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"sandu-darie-transformable-structures-arhitecturi","title":"Sandu Darie - Transformable Structures","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"description-span\"\u003esigned lower right\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eoil on board\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e50 x 39 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe work is accompanied by the original invoice from Acacia Gallery, Cuba, April 5, 1998, with the stamp of the National Register of Cultural Goods.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\"\u003eDOCUMENTARY DATA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the 1950s, Sandu Darie began working on what he called \"Transformable Structures\".

These works delved into a personal kineticism, where the pictorial plane acts as a basis from which mobile axes for the spectator are born. A multidisciplinary artist, he worked in various artistic fields, including sculpture, painting, drawing, ceramics, stage design and theater costumes. He began his academic training in Paris in 1926 in the university field of law. However, his interest in art and the artistic atmosphere in Paris introduced Sandu Darie to the world of art in a self-taught manner. During this period, the artist combined his training in France with participation in progressive magazines and newspapers in Romania and France, in which he created humorous drawings. In 1940 he joined the French army as a volunteer, arriving in Cuba a year later. On the island he began producing humorous drawings, which gained him a great reputation, making him a leading artist from 1942 onwards. In 1949, the year of his first exhibition in New York, he began his artistic relationship with Gyula Kosice, founder of the \"Arte Madí\" group, and thus became involved in the group's exhibitions and the publication of articles in the group's magazine. Between 1958 and 1961 he was a member of the renowned artist group \"Diez Pintores Concretos\", and in 1964 he made the documentary \"Cosmorama. Poema espacial no 1\", an experimental study of forms and structures in motion. In the 1970s, his production followed a line of projects for urban architectural environments using kineticism as a language. In 1982 he was a member of the jury for Salón Paisaje'82, Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, Havana, and in 1988 he was on the jury for the III Salón de Premiados, Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, Havana, Cuba. Sandu Darie Laver is one of the most remarkable figures in Cuban art. He is one of the main precursors of abstraction in both its lyrical and geometric aspects. An example of his experience with geometric abstraction is this plastic work, which, due to its formal and structural characteristics, could have been executed in the 1950s. He was also one of the leading representatives of kinetic art. Among his many recognitions, it is worth mentioning the Honorable Mention of the VIII Salón de Pintura y Escultura del Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes de La Habana in 1956 and his appointment as Honorary Member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague (Netherlands) in 1975, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid, and numerous private collections worldwide, as well as institutions such as Casa de las Américas in Havana (Cuba) and MoMA in New York, among others.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePROVENANCE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eDynasty Fine Arts, Miami, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Artiss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50628409033042,"sku":"","price":20000.0,"currency_code":"RON","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/1526\/3570\/files\/118019664_1_x.webp?v=1745260362"}],"url":"https:\/\/artiss.ro\/en\/collections\/sandu-darie.oembed","provider":"Artiss","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
