Influenţe şi interferenţe artistice în Banat şi Ţara Zarandului (secolul XVIII şi prima jumătate a secolului XIX)
Influences and Interference in the Banat and the Zarand Country (the 18th Century and the First Half of the 19th Century)

Summary/Abstract: The author presents the specific features of painting in the 18th century’s Banat and the Zarand Country, and points out the emergence of a new original attitude, which gradually laicizes church painting, and which is attached to Central European baroque and rococo art at the end of the century. Thus, landscapes from nature make their appearance in icons, laic motifs in painted wooden churches in pictorial ensembles, and Biblical themes are interpreted in a laic way. Culture in this space, expression of internal and external interference, created on a firm traditional vein, gave birth to an original art, laicized, narrative and, not seldom, an art of attitude.
