Discover the contemporary work of Adrian Doni
“Adrian Doni is an original, inimitable artist, a distinct personality, who shapes space and offers a unique image of the rural world of Bukovina... He was born in 1959 in Bacau - Romania. He took his first steps in art, bringing the beauties of the Moldavian village to the canvas, then experimenting with different styles from landscape to cubism. His first supervisors who guided his steps in art were professors Stefan Pristavu and Constantin Ciosu, two great Romanian artists. Many years ago, under the guidance of the master Ilie Boca, he took his first steps in naïve painting bringing to the canvas amusing events and customs of his native village, rendered in a personal style by a vivid color with more or less strong contrasts. Naïve painting remains his great passion, which is why he follows the three-year course at the Popular School of Arts, the Naïve Art section and a one-year Iconography course under the direction of Professor Dr. Dorin Macovei. He thus participates in various fairs and festivals of naive art, in collective and personal exhibitions, both in the country and abroad, being rewarded with various prizes and distinctions. His paintings have reached private collectors all over the world. He wears the pseudonym of Adrian Doni in exhibitions and also signs on his paintings »Adrian Doni currently lives in France.
