Descriere Autoportret pentru cvintet de suflatori. Self-portrait for windquintet - Aurelian Bacan

Editie bilingva. Romana-engleza Si-a castigat libertatea de a nu mai astepta nimic de la nimeni si de a scormoni pana in cele mai adanci unghere ale lumii sale interioare. Iar fraternizarea cu el se implineste mai ales aici, unde e mai singur. Caci sub aceasta masca hilara tristetea face sa straluceasca viata pana la suferinta. Batranul cu tichie de clovn nu mai e "un pictor". E chiar pictura. - Octavian Paler He earned the freedom of having no expectations from anyone and of rummaging through the deepest corners of his inner soul. And symbiosis with himself is accomplished especially here, where he is lonelier. Because under this hilarious mask, sadness makes life shine until suffering. The old man with a clown hat is no longer "a painter". He is the painting itself. - Octavian Paler
