Zeno X Gallery is pleased to present Bleeding Heart, the fourth solo exhibition by Mircea Suciu (b. 1978, Cluj) in Antwerp. The show includes thirteen paintings offering an overview of the recent developments in
his work.
The exhibition takes its title from the derogatory (political) term for a person considered to be excessively soft-hearted or liberal. Before surfacing in conservative rhetoric as a term of disparagement for more liberal politicians, the term was used in religious writings and iconography in reference to the heart of Jesus Christ and was found in literature to describe sincere emotional outpourings. As an artist, Mircea Suciu is deeply fascinated by humankind and its actions. Through his art, he seeks to understand the world around him and to process it until he reaches a conclusive result.
