About Raul Oprea

Romanian artist, illustrator and muralist, he lived all over Romania,

a year and a half in Berlin, and now back in Bucharest.

Always attracted towards a fantastic, bizarre imagery, since

childhood, when he used to devour tones of horror and scifi

movies and books. He learned the basics of graphics at the

Univeristy of Art and Design in Cluj-Napoca, but his first

important step to what he is today as an artist, was discovering

street art, and founding one of the first street art collectives in

Romania, The Playground.

His artistic work ranges from dreamy, colorful, pop-surrealistic

paintings, to dark, monochromatic, powerful drawings.

He doesn’t have a very rational approach in his artistic process,

he feels his works are collections of suggestions, influences

from Renaissance, Flemish Masters, lowbrow art, street art,

design, and personal moods – all brought together in a fantastic

scene, or an intricate monstrous Arcimboldian portrait, or even

abstract compositions.

His work was showed in many group exhibitions in Bucharest,

Timisoara, Berlin, Vienna, Aalborg, Copenhagen, San Jose, New

York, Los Angeles, Ottawa, Montreal, Stockholm,

Dresden, Muenster, Holon, Glasgow, Salvador, etc.
