Critical Reviews:
Besides the fact that Andrei Negura is a free artist in his seekings, he is very productive, fertile and unpredictable in tackling subjects of poetical frontier and selecting means of poetic expressiveness of these states.

Being formed in the exigencies of the decorative art, Andrei Negura explores the limits of the genre in different directions in order to achieve the values of graphicalness.
