42. Surfboat in Mangalia [first half of the 20s]

His friendship with Jean Alexandru Steriadi helped Dimitrie Ghiaţă quickly discover the Romanian seaside, an important breakthrough for a whole series of artists who worked in the inter-war period. In 1920 he enrolled in the "Studio" group – a place where Steriadi gave painting, engraving and drawing lessons, studies he continued with his friend and master and on the trips to Dobrogea. The first impressions from Dobrogea are revealed by the drawings made as early as 1920 (see "Industrial Balchik Landscape" and "At the Edge of the Town", in the collection of Dimitrie and Aurelia Ghiaţă Memorial Museum). Ghiaţă's painting in this period is a cerebral one, the specificity of the places – the Delta, Kavarna, Mangalia, Kaliakra and Balchik – being conceived after an ascetic aesthetic pattern. The colour, conveyed either by sensation or through the filter of reason, and the line coordinating the compositional complex led to the creation of works in which the monumental was hinted at by the honesty of treating the subject. The marine subject in the creation of Ghiaţă is temporally limited to the inter-war period, its recurrence after 1940 being very low. Thus, the emergence of a seascape canvas is mainly an exceptional occasion, because, although not necessarily rare, these images are very limited in number and highly appreciated.
