Dan Vezentan_portret 1.jpg

Dan Vezentan explores the zootechnic and agricultural universe, presenting it subjectively, as he recalls his childhood memories. His works stem from the design of households, the animal feeding and watering systems or from the food stocking systems, investigating the production of food, surplus, biological waste and ecology.
He grew up in the context of an agriculture based environment in MaramureÈ™, northern Romania, surrounded by feeding machineries, technical husbandry manuals and animal anatomy books.

​​

Dan Vezentan ( born 1978, Seini ), graduated Bucharest University of Arts, lives and works as an artist and photographer in Bucharest.
