The Romanian painter and graphic artist Maria Nedelcov, also known as Beba (1983 - present)
is a central figure in the post-modernist movement. Born in Athens, with a trail of work that
led her from Europe to the Middle-East to North America and back, her joyful works have
delighted the eye for over ten years.
Her art is noted by a very strong nonetheless delicate visual elegance and a sensitive
creative appeal. The candor of message that transpires from her art is considered one of the
best in the world.
After attending the Bucharest School of Fine Arts and learning classical painting from Mircia
Dumitrescu, Beba traveled to New York where under the care of great artists she exceled in a
masters degree in both in visual arts and management. In US she started the current modern
expressionist art. Paintings like the "Imagine us together"(2008) or the famous
"Golden Ballerina" (2009) have paved the way to her unique art and made many
purchase her canvases for the feeling they radiate, not just the artistic value. As a dear
friend of the artist has pointed out in just one sentence: "c'est superbe! belles
influences de Jean Cocteau et Picasso" ("it is superb! beautiful influences of
Picasso and Jean Cocteau").
Between 2000 and 2004 her style has been completely different with the stokes of the brush,
she imagined collectors' items and created items like the "Angel Wings" or
"Women talking" that have been very much appreciated by critics and art lovers
alike.
In 2010 a private store has opened in Bucharest, showcasing only Beba's works of art. It is
one of the only galleries dedicated to a sole artist but the vast success and the praises from
the critiques have been stepping stone to a series of galleries around the world.
