CRITICAL REVIEW

He uses an abstract language, at the limit between a rigorous construction and free improvisation. In his monumental works, made at several symposia of sculpture (Măgura-Buzău, Scânteia, Oarba de Mureș etc.), he gets the monumental effects by a rhythm with a never radical geometrical allusion.
