Summary/Abstract: Between January and March 2025, the Constanţa Art Museum hosted the retrospective exhibition of the artist Gheorghe I. Anghel, curated by Ion Anghel and Lelia Rus Pîrvan. Such an exhibition takes a long time to prepare and gathers at its core the essence of a life. I had the privilege of meeting the master Anghel just a few months before his passing. Although he had reached a respectable age, the artist GA had the spirit of a rebellious teenager and the fine humor of one who had read, seen and experienced everything that is essential. A large-scale exhibition, with the works created in his last creative period, was mandatory for the city that owed him, as a founding professor, among others, of the Faculty of Art in Constanţa. Founded in the 2000s, with the considerable contribution of personalities in our field, including university professor Gheorghe I. Anghel, the Faculty of Arts was at that time a melting pot of professors from UNArte Bucharest, local personalities and young students.
