The release of art Teodor Botis was a very special event, held on July 10th, 2014 at Senso Art Gallery in Bucharest. Artists’ friends, art critics and collectors have enjoyed together this great album art, which spans the entire life of the artist Teodor Botis.

The art critics Mircea Deac and Virgil Mocanu, the writer and art collector Radu Georgescu spoke in opening of the event. Teodor Botis told us how he personally got involved in selecting the photos, the paintings and the critical texts for the album. As confessed by the art critic Virgil Mocanu, the release of the album is a special moment, it is the sadness of separation from a remarkable exhibition and also a joy for our personal library, mind and soul.

One of the great friends of the artist, Nikita Stanescu, wrote in 1983: After entering the painting of Teodor Botis and the entry into a universe with a different point of escape, the surprise phenomenon begins to distill the colored spaces proposing a lyrical drama and also assuming a romantic epic, bringing movement of concrete sentiments to the border of abstract ideas. His paintings disturb me and incite me and whenever I see them, I do not get enough of watching them.

Teodor Botis is a true Transylvanian, a man who loves living space, that is why we find in his paintings landscapes from Transylvania with hills, houses and villages coverd with snow. “His works are the ice flowers on the window glass, like some embroidery, made by angels or some seams made by a celestial frame,” says George Stanca.

His paintings entitled “Perenity” “Blue Symphony”, “Metamorphosis”, “Mystery” speak in spontaneous touches abot the ideals of the modern man.

The painting of Teodor Botis is unique.

For me the painting is a great love, a love which you have to bestow totally, with pain, with soul, passion and optimism and have the feeling that everything tends to perfection confesses Teodor Botis at the exhibition at Gallery Senso.

Born in 1938, artist Teodor Botis had over 37 solo exhibitions in the country. He received 13 awards and honors. His art is unique and everyone who sees it feels a great joy. His painting is recognized from afar, says the academician Ionel Haiduc, a great lover of art.

A graduate of the National University of Arts, Department of Graphic (class of Mircea Dumitrescu), Ana Stefania Andronic (BUZU) was always in the public eye through her participation in personal and group exhibitions and the development of new techniques of painting on textiles, decorative and mural decorations.

The ehibitionn was presented by the art critic, Aurelia Mocanu.

In the foyer the audience could see the documentary “Portrait of Alexandru Gheorghita”, made by Senso TV.

“The sculpture of Alexandru Gheorghita brings together two fundamental components: on the one hand the deep memory of the anonymous carvers, those who lived in a true communion with the wood and the stone, beyond the everyday experiences, exterior and strictly utilitarian and, on the other hand, the redefining and reinterpreting of the space and form as they are in vision of Constantin Brancusi. (…) Alexandru Gheorghita creates his own world of forms and aspirations, and also a true mitology in which space each object takes a defined route, invested with complex meanings. “
