Petru's Love, Sex and Death series is a Middle Ages Trilogy on thousands of works and inspirations from Giovanni Boccaccios' 707 year-old pre-Renaissance book IL DECAMERONE, Geoffrey Chaucer’s Pilgrinages or THE CANTERBURY TALES and, Francis Petrarcha’s Story of Griselda or TALE OF GRISELDA. As Petru's work developed he also drew great inspiration from the only Ancient Roman novelist Apuleius and his novel THE GOLDEN ASS, and from the finest author of the twentieth century, Umberto Eco's THE NAME OF THE ROSE and FOUCAULT'S PENDULUM.
Briefly, Petru Russu has realized around 200 individual and international exhibitions. His artworks are in museums, public, corporate and private collections. Petru's unconventional method of etching in aqua-tinta-aqua-forte in [[1]] depicts on 100 erotic-to-tragic novels 100 non-usual hand painted engravings, as the same on Umberto Eco's first and best books, THE NAME OF THE ROSE and the esoteric FOUCAULT'S PENDULUM represented in etchings, drawings, and other art objects.
