Nicu Ilfoveanu was born in Pitesti, Romania in 1975; lives and works in Bucharest, Romania. He has presented his works - photography and videos - in individual and collective exhibitions as well as arts fairs and video festivals in Romania and abroad. His recent contemporary art fairs participations include Bologna Arte Fiera from Italy (2006 and 2007) and at ViennAfair (2006). He was best selling Romanian artist in Bologna during his participation at the Contemporary Art fair. In 2007, he exhibited at "Inbetweens" CM San Michele in Ripa, Rome, Italy and was presented in Bucharest at Galeria Posibila with the most recent series of photos steampunk autochrome. Most recent series of Nicu Ilfoveanu's photography refers to color photos steampunk autochrome. The concept was defined by the Romanian art historian Stefan Tiron and was assumed by the artist as describing both the subject and the technical process intended. Autochrome, first colored photography, on the one hand and SPA, Section Photographique de l`Armee, a revolutionary media detachment of the French army from the beginning of the last century, on the other hand meet for the first time in the War that was meant to end all wars, WWI as it is known today. A wonderful technical discovery made possible that the image of this war could be passed on to us in a romantically view. The long exposure made impossible the reproduction of the war abomination as we are used today; more than that, the instability of the process gives a certain unique strangeness to the colors that creates more of a dream world. Nicu Ilfoveanu presents the contemporary ruins of a war too agitated and too stormy for being recorded, but it can be reconstructed as our grand- grandfathers did in their stories. Thus the sorrowful experiences become memories full of stories for those who never lived it. Steampunk is a dual process into which the present is related through elements of the past.
