Doru Tulcan
(1943, Cladova, România - lives and works in România)
Doru Tulcan was a member of Sigma group in Timisoara since its beginnings until 1978. The group put emphasis on teamwork and interdisciplinarity (integrate mathematics, cybernetics, bionics, psychology, and architecture in the arts), used variety influenced by Bauhaus, constructivism and new trends in art and architecture. His photographs, drawings, objects and installations explore the representations of the body and were created as a result of actionist experiments. Tulcan continued to experiment with photography and film during the 80s and 90s, though his main focus shifted towards painting. He had many personal exhibitions in Timisoara and Bucharest, and took part in various international group exhibitions.
