pencil and mixed media on paper 55 x 39.8 cm 1996 Romanian visual artist Aurel Bulacu is a painter, graphic artist and professor at the Graphic Arts Department at the Institute of Fine in Bucharest: ‘Art is my way of living normally in a world that is increasingly becoming a pseudo-cultural world, a kind of badly written book that I try to illustrate with my hymns, to make it more attractive, to make it a luxury edition. My creation is aimed at those who still like to satisfy their visual aesthetic needs. Even if they are few in number, they exist and I must give them what they want. If God gives me many years and good health, I will do it until the last moment of my life.’ Aurel Bulacu
