The Fine Arts Museum from Grigore Antipa Street, no. 2, invites the public to appreciate the work “Eva” (bronze), author Frederic Storck (1872 – 1942), a work that is part of the museum’s sculpture collection.

“Carol’s younger brother and son of Karl Storck, Frederic Storck, a member of an elite artistic family between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, make a special mark in modern Romanian art. both through its creation and through the involvement in the socio-cultural life of the interwar period. Formed in Bucharest and Munich, Frederick Storck founded the famous group “Artistic Youth”, which would include the most important modern Romanian artists, and together with his wife, Cecilia Cuţescu-Storck, formed a family of intellectuals and artists. or set the tone for innovations in the cultural landscape of the time.
Academic style and realist-naturalism also rooted Frederic Storck in the early period of creation, so that in adulthood he would move away from these formulas, going on a more accentuated stylization of forms.
Like his brother, Carol, he worked on allegorical statues, such as Adevărul, Industria, Agricultura, in Carrara marble, but also portraits of cultural and political personalities: Ion Heliade Rădulescu, Alexandru Macedonski, Mihai Eminescu, Anastasie Simu, Carol I or Regina Elisabeta . The sculptor’s favorite material was marble, probably for the nobility with which he managed to represent his models and for its durability. Carol and Frederic Storck’s art is a starting point and a landmark for the further development of Romanian sculpture, which will then embrace many directions and styles. “

WORK OF JANUARY 2022 at Avramide House

By Events | No Comments

Avramide House from 32 Progresului Street, invites the public to appreciate the armchair – Louis Philippe style replica, made of wood and cotton and silk fabrics in a European workshop. The object is part of the permanent exhibition of the Avramide House.

 

The style of architecture and design under King Louis Philippe I (1830–1848) was a more eclectic development of French neoclassicism, incorporating elements of neo-Gothic style and other styles. It was the first French decorative style imposed not by royalty, but by the tastes of the growing French upper class.

 

Much of the style was taken from the personality of the king himself. Unlike his Bourbon predecessors, he lived in Paris and avoided ceremonies. He did not impose any official style.

 

During the reign of Ludovic Filip, the forms of furniture changed little compared to the period of the French restoration; comfort has become a higher priority. The furniture became darker and heavier. The shapes of the chairs became rounded, with curved legs, and the backrest of the armchairs was slightly curved inwards.
