Curatorial Statement:
In Night with Stars in Venice, Ovidiu Kloska reimagines the timeless allure of Venice as an ethereal mindscape, where the familiar melds with the ineffable. This masterful work, a standout from his acclaimed Beyond the Inside series, transcends traditional landscape painting to evoke a realm that exists between memory and reverie.

Kloska’s brushstrokes are deliberate yet fluid, capturing the ephemeral quality of a starlit Venetian night. Gondolas, rendered as delicate whispers of form, drift along luminous currents, while the city’s storied architecture dissolves into a spectral play of light and shadow. The palette—rich indigos, subtle crimsons, and iridescent violets—imbues the scene with a celestial vibrancy, echoing the opalescent glow of precious gemstones.

Drawing upon the legacy of classical romanticism and the transformative spirit of modern abstraction, the painting invites viewers on a solitary journey into the depths of consciousness. Each layer of pigment unfolds like a page in a poetic narrative, where the tangible world is gently recast in the light of inner vision and sublime introspection.

Kloska’s work is not simply a visual record of a city, but a meditation on the transient interplay between reality and imagination—a luminous invitation to explore the metaphysical spaces that lie beyond the surface of everyday life.

Embrace this rare opportunity to acquire a piece that not only defines contemporary abstraction but also offers a profound dialogue between light, color, and the inner landscapes of the soul.
