"Dumitru Bostan Jr. isn’t content just to skillfully record, but processes the subject, plasticizes it, until he absorbs it in the rhythm of his own language. On the one hand, without being overwhelmed by the splendor and nobility of the subject (when they exist), the artist prefers to take possession of the image, to dominate it, to tear up the light with firm brush strokes, dynamic, specific, dictated by a personal sensitive code". Emil Nicolae
