Modest Bursucianu was born in the sixties in Iassy, Romania.His artistic aspirations and his talent lead him to take up his studies at the Conservatory of Music and Fine-Arts George Enescu in his hometown.He establishes himself in Montreal in 1990 and continues his education in Visual Arts at the University of Quebec in Montreal from where he successfully graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree.While fully devoted to his career as a painter, Modest Bursucianu has created the Montreal Artistic Group Versus and has organized several group exhibitions, including those held at the Centre Constantin Brancusi in Montreal.In all his works, there are elements which lead to a figurative art style and become symbols: a passage, a link between the concepts which define the worlds to which he gives life on his canvasses. Modest Bursucianu revels in the elaboration of forms, creating symbols or a myth, and with the clever use of his brushes imparts a structure to his paintings, which emanate harmony.The artist innovates in his choice of techniques and materials like Gesso, which he uses for the preparation of his canvasses.He also has used crayons, pastels and charcoal.All his paintings, where the imagination of the artist transcends the subject of the picture, subjugate the art lover.
