“Hide and Seek” at InterContinental Bucharest

October 31, 2018

InterContinental Bucharest and Renaissance Art Gallery continue the series of painting exhibitions to promote young Romanian painters, at the Intermezzo Lobby Lounge, in the hotel lobby   Starting with 1st of November, the talented Iulia Toader will expose ‘Hide and Seek’, a collection of paintings inspired by childhood. Iulia studied at the School of Popular Art following the University of Architecture ‘Ion Mincu’ with specializations at ‘Fuer Baugeschichte Karlsruhe’ Institute, and has been working in interior architecture for 14 years, with experience in renovation in the classical and eclectic domain. Three years ago she went back to painting, her first passion, and has been exhibiting with Renaissance Art Gallery since May 2017, when she had her opening of „Golden Age” Exhibition inspired by the Greek mythology, an era when Gods and Humans were living together on Mount Olympus. In her second exhibition with Renaissance Art Gallery and in partnership with InterContinental Bucharest and OZB Magazine, Iulia’s collection of childhood paintings reveals the artist belief that the universe of childhood is always an artwork in itself, being perceived through the adult eyes, and never directly by the children, as they are in a continuous alpha state, that is evanishing when they are starting to grow up. ‘I am happy to organize this first launching event in partnership with Renaissance Art Gallery and OZB Magazine, especially because this proves that Intermezzo Lobby Lounge became a trustworthy art stage for young talented artists, a space for quality gatherings in the heart of Bucharest, considering this is the fifth exhibition since we opened this chic spot in our hotel lobby.’ stated Lior Bebera, General Manager at the InterContinental Bucharest. „<Creating from scratch meaningfull exhibitions together with its artists>, the motto of the Renaissance Art Gallery comes more and more to life with this new exhibition and the empowerment of yet another talented lady, Iulia Toader, who reveals her passion and personality, in a reflection of the chilhood universe mirroring her own soul”, said Oana Visoiu, the owner of Renaissance Art Gallery. ‘As an artwork, childhood is always a phenomenological reflection of the inner world of the adult observer. A universe that is intentionally evanescent and peaceful, which, at a closer look, hides imminent danger. We are all prisoners in this universe of our own childhood, which, in reality, is the mirror of our own spiritual existence’ believes Iulia Toader. ‘OZB Magazine supports the art scene in Romania. We strongly believe that art can connect and inspire people, it can take them away from everyday’s life and make them happy’, said Fulvia Meirosu, co-owner of OZB Magazine, media partner of Renaissance Art Gallery. Art lovers can admire and purchase paitings signed Iulia Toader between 1st- 28th November, 2018.
