Critical Text (1992–93)
Dora Iliaou-Rogan — Doctor of Art History, Art Critic

The work of Angelo Tziara communicates with all our senses.
It is above all a deeply poetic work; an inspired body of work that contains multiple messages and communicates with us on multiple levels.
It concerns the unknown through the known and vice versa; it is above all a work which, like the chain of a “ritual,” activates all our senses and not only our gaze—multiple creative facets that touch us at the most sensitive point of our inner being.
Gifted with an inexhaustible and boundless imagination, Tziara creates masterpieces tirelessly, constantly renewing his poetic solutions. A material, however simple it may be, is instantly transformed in his hands into a work of art through a magical gesture.
His symbolic pictorial creations, as well as his constructions in wood, iron, bronze, recycled materials, his jewelry, his diadems and crowns, his art objects—such as chairs, tables, screens—and ultimately everything that emerges from his hands, is wondrously transformed into a work of art endowed with incomparable dynamism.
A dynamism that renews the rules of conventional art in order to affirm the presence of a “momentum of grace.” A momentum of grace that integrates this work into a cosmic orbit—into the very essence of cosmogony itself.
Tziara revealed as a tireless and particularly gifted creator.
