In 2001-2003, he became a full member of the Union of Visual Artists of Romania, Cluj Branch, Bucharest, Brașov, also being a member of IAA AIAP UNESCO.He is known both in Romania and abroad, being a bearer of an art in which great beauty is found in the world of colors, in the freedom and spontaneity of the artistic gesture, in the way some forms are separated, in the elegance of the interrupted line in order to evoke a contour.

Being in a period of mature affirmation, Mihai Chiselita’s painting is equally color, artistic gesture, symbol, and artistic culture.

Here’s a slightly more nuanced translation that tries to capture the stylistic elements:

He is known both domestically and internationally, as a proponent of an art where profound beauty resides within the realm of colors, in the liberty and spontaneity of the artistic gesture, in the manner in which certain forms are delineated, in the elegance of the broken line used to evoke a contour.

Currently in a phase of established maturity, Mihai Chiselita’s painting is equally composed of color, artistic gesture, symbol, and artistic culture.
