Clipa captivă

"...Making Felix Aderca a master, Nicolae Marinescu offers us not the "Testimony of a generation", but the confession of a time concentrated in the confessing moment. What irrepressibly attracts attention is the art of conversation in which we notice the pleasure but also the science of communication, without the preciousness of salon coziness, without those gratuitous reverences, be they also spiritual. Leading the discussion preemptively or provocatively, the author is interested in finding out what others think about the world of yesterday and today, referring to the condition of an artist living under the pressure of the social moment. If Olten's fine arts do not mean what they should mean, it is due, I think most of the preopinents, to the fact that inertia, compromise, mediation, terrorism of financial circumstances are accepted. Beyond intransigence, illusions, dilemmas (sometimes pathetic), justifications, the exchange of ideas induces a serious sense of urgency and privileges that special spirit of the first person, i.e. of direct responsibility. The permanent state of interrogative vigilance allows him to situate, deepen or verify some unsettling intuitions..." C.M. Popa
