Cercul de Grafică
Grupul
numit “Cercul de Grafică” este o extensie a unei unitaţi de învaţământ numita
Palatul Copiilor din Cluj-Napoca.
S-a nascut ca o forma de asociere creative pe baza unui fond educativ comun si
pe o serie de principii teoretice unitare.
Cu toate
acestea nu exista nimic programatic in concepţiile artistice , nu exista un
manifest sau o declaraţie de intenţie; viziunea specifiica este rezultatul unei
dezvoltari organice.
Grupul in
sine a aparut ca urmare a unui experiment, in parte social, in parte artistic;
ideea care i-a animat initial formarea a fost constituirea unui univers plastic
specific anumitei vârste. În general segmental de vârstă 15-19 ani nu are
emanaţii artistice notabile, dar nu pentru ca nu exista o viziune specifica, ci
pentru ca nu exista achiziţiile tehnice necesare unei exprimari corente.
La această
varstă domina stângăcia, exprimările plastice sunt criptice pana la limita
opacităţii, cu toate acestea exista o vigoare tipica, o candoare in asumarea
temelor care depaseşte arta “matura”.
Cercul de
Grafică este un hibrid, membrii sai au ajuns sa posede un bagaj tehnic decent,
pastrându-şi insa prospeţimea unei viziuni nealterate de nici un fel de
autocenzura. Lucrarile astfel apărute au depăşit nivelul unor exerciţii plastice
devenind un produs artistic in circulaţie.
The group
named “Cercul de grafica” is an extension of an educational unit called Palatul
Copiilor, based in Cluj-Napoca.
It was born as a form of creative association formed on a shared educational
basis and on a series of unitary theoretical principles.
Despite
that, there is nothing programmatic about the artistic conceptions, there isn’t
any manifest or any declaration of intention; the specific vision is the
product of an organic development.
The group came together as consequence of an experiment, mainly social, partly artistic; the idea that initially animated its emergence was the comprising of a plastic universe specific to a certain age class. Generally, the assemble of artists aged 15-19 doesn’t have notable artistic emanations, however this is not because a particular vision does not exist, but because the technical goods necessary for a coherent expression of self do not exist.

Foolishness
governs these ages, plastic expression is cryptic, almost opaque. In spite of
that there is a typical vigor, a certain candor in the assuming of themes which
surpasses “mature” art.
Cercul de
grafica is a hybrid, its members have come to possess a decent technical quota,
keeping, however, the freshness of a vision unaltered by any type of
self-censoring. Artworks which came to be in this way have surpassed the degree
of plastic experimentation, thus becoming circulating artistic products.
