More about Sandu Musat
Sandu Musat was born in 1959 in the Buzau region of Romania. In 1970, at the age of eleven, he won second prize for landscape painting among a field of sixty-seven art students in the country. The following year he took first place in the same national competition.
Between the years 1974 – 1978, he attended the local Arts high school where he studied painting and sculpture. Upon graduation, he entered Ion Andreescu Institute of Art in Bucharest where he was honored top of his class in each of his years there.
From 1984 until the present, his artistic output has been almost exclusively in “layered glass”, experimenting and perfecting old and new methods. The landscape themes prominent in his work are scenes sketched directly from the region surrounding his studio and home.
Approximately 80% of the cutback seen in Musat’s work is achieved through hydrofluoric acid etching. In addition, he employs wheel-grinding, carving, sand-blasting and several other techniques in the completion of each one-of-a-kind art piece.
Musat’s cameo art glass debuted internationally in 1991 in Kobe, Japan with great success, followed by expositions in 1993 and 1994 in Tokyo and Osaka. Further expositions included London in 1997, Berlin in 2001, and Haifa, Israel in 2003.
