“Interested in established aesthetic landmarks in contemporary art, Liviu Mihai renders in his visual discourse surprising landscapes, deer that seem to be detached from the wall carpets, historical personalities, respectively female icons – such as Marilyn Monroe – or hunting greyhounds (hence the title of the exhibition). Seemingly random, these unique associations of subjects denote not only a vast thematic diversity, but also a broad perspective on the surrealist-inspired imaginary of the artist. Placed on abstract backgrounds, the narrative sequences in Liviu Mihai’s compositions present characters whose faces are not, most of the times, clearly distinguished but which refer to the collective unconscious.
