Marieta Chirulescu

Marieta Cirulescu is a Romanian-German artist known for her abstract and conceptual paintings. She studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bucharest and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg, Germany.

Cirulescu's work is characterised by calm colours and minimal compositions, often featuring repeating patterns and forms reminiscent of organic forms and structures found in nature. She is interested in the interplay of the organic and geometric, and her works often evoke a sense of movement and growth.

Cirulescu has exhibited her work extensively in Europe and the United States, including exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art in Frankfurt, the Kunstmuseum Bonn and the New Museum in New York. She was also included in the Romanian pavilion at the 2013 Venice Biennale.

Cirulescu is the recipient of numerous awards and grants, including the Villa Romana Prize in 2004 and the Berlin Senate Fellowship in 2009. She currently lives and works in Berlin.
