15. Clown [1997]

Embracing the belief that "we are actors of this world", Stefan Câlția opens a pictorial cycle dedicated to the spectacle. The world of the spectacle in his creation appears initially in the form of the carnivalesque. The artist adopts the moralizing sense of the proposed characters, illustrates the fascinating world of the circus, and presents a world turned upside down. He contours his repertoire from immediate reality and his direct contact with divinity. He creates certain typologies that become leitmotifs of his creation, regardless of the chosen theme: the winged woman, travelers, musicians, or the bird - understood as a way of connecting with the celestial environment. In the passage of characters from backstage to curtain, the artist shows his mastery in illustrating magical realism, full of symbols, in a playful manner. The ambivalence of the semiotics proposed by the artist is revealed to us in simple motifs, which have become the leitmotif. The grammar of his plastic signs naturally converges towards complex states of mind. Rich because of the expressive force of the central character, this work impresses with its chromatic contrast. The artist does not hesitate to use shades of red, which highlight the carnivalesque in the clown's costume. The earthly colors and the red hues that succeed harmoniously in shaping the costume of the protagonist create the ideal framework for the integration of the green accents in the background.
