Szutor Ribana

Romania

Ribana Szutor, author of over one hundred works, was influenced by artists like Picasso, Vedova, and Pollock. Winning Romania’s National Prize for painting in 1999, she exhibited internationally in cities such as Los Angeles, New York, and Milan. Her early works reflect a "black period" with large portraits and floral compositions, evolving into representations of women as powerful, independent, and sensual figures. Her paintings explore the duality of the sacred and profane, portraying women as both strong and fragile, inviting viewers to engage with their emotions and inner essence.

Speranza


Paintings. Acrylic on canvas.

Hand selected by our curators


Ribana Szutor’s work echoes Foscolo’s reflection on hope’s departure from the realm of the dead. Through a nuanced visual language, the piece explores the fragile boundary between existence and absence, where hope lingers only as long as life endures. The composition invites contemplation on the transient nature of belief and expectation.
