Geta Brătescu's Career Under Romanian Communism Explored in ARTMargins Interview

In December 2013, ARTMargins Online published an interview with Romanian artist Geta Brătescu conducted by Adriana Oprea. Brătescu, who studied at Bucharest's Faculty of Letters and Institute of Fine Arts under master teacher Camil Ressu, developed a diverse practice spanning drawing, collage, engraving, tapestry, objects, photography, experimental film, video, and performance. She also authored several books documenting studio notes, artistic reflections, and travel experiences. Working primarily under Romania's communist regime, Brătescu was already established when the regime ended in 1989, after which she continued exhibiting in significant local shows like The Gender of Mozart at Artexpo. The interview explores her career trajectory and artistic output within Romania's specific historical context.
