Poch Albert

Poch Albert left behind a small group of drawings and one sculpture made during Romania’s communist years. Their titles read like headlines—*În piața...comună*, *Trebuie să scăpăm de el*, *Mi-am făcut autocritica*—sharp, ironic comments on daily life under the regime. The linework is quick and direct, like notes you’d scribble in a notebook and never meant to frame. See how the sculpture’s stiff, blocky shape mirrors the bluntness of the drawings. Tap *La noi are doar 1/2 normă* to compare five works that slice straight to the contradictions of the time.
