NICU LIUTA uses both spiritual and painterly strokes to capture the luminescence of our life cycles in his breathtaking expressionistic and figurative paintings. He blends color and form in a gripping collection of signs which point out the soul’s pilgrimage in and between the conflicting realms of the spirit. His paintings relate a profound search for “the seen of the unseen”, the visible of the invisible. With emphatic splashes of color and scratches of his brush, he translates mystical experiences of spiritual encounters in works reminiscent of Marc Chagall and Ad Reinhardt. Nicu believes that color has the capacity to heal our soul by inspiring contemplation, thus leading the viewer to reach beyond the limitations of his perceptive mechanisms to get closer to the natural world.

Born in and raised in Romania today Nicu Liuta resides in Burnaby, British Columbia. He has studied at Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design, Vancouver, and has participated in Group and Solo Exhibitions in Romania and Canada. His paintings are housed in private collection across Europe, Canada, and United States.

You won’t want to the miss the ‘BAC-Talk’ event on Feb13th,at 1pm! There will be an artists reception followed by a talk in which Nicu will be speaking about his technique and the impetus behind his translation of the ‘unseen’ of spirit, and how he captures it as ‘the seen’ on canvas.

Artworks will be available for sale and refreshments will be served.
