Romanian folk decorative art, born as a result of the people’s necessity to adorn their dwellings, clothing, utensils and objects of domestic use, blends the useful with the beautiful. One of the characteristic features of our people is the ability to create forms and colors inspired both by reality and imagination.
Romanian Folk Art brings its original contribution to word folk art as regards colors and forms. In all branches of the folk art – embroidery, fabrics, ceramics, wood-engraving, etc. – the artistic gifts of our people have found successful forms of expression.
Color blending, the artistic expression given to designs taken from surrounding reality – flowers, animals, people or the combining of ornamental geometrical motives such as spirals, lozenges, serpentines, a balanced composition and craftsmanship in execution – these are the characteristics features of the Romanian folk art.
The popular artist’s imagination creates new combinations of colors and forms which constantly enrich the patrimony of our folk art and ensure its viability. Thanks to the particular attention devoted by our state to arts, our folk decorative art is now flowering as never before. Continuing the valuable centuries-old traditions of our forerunners, popular artists from all regions of the country vie with one another to enrich the treasury of Romanian folk art.
Based on all the characteristics that make the Romanian folk art both very unique and actual in the modern Eastern Europeans geographic space, our gallery main goal - "Galleries under the Gate" - reside in keeping all these handcrafts alive, by supporting the very creative artisans and their artistic products in one of the most important cultural centre of Transylvania.
