[5] He is a winner of numerous prizes, medals, trophies and other mentions at different international and national art competitions and salons, among them: The artist's works are exhibited in several museums: "Tudor Zbârnea's painting belongs in all its details to the true Romanian tradition, but it can be seen that in depths of his feeling, in the depths of his artistic thinking, these genes, these canons of Romanian colorism were inherited from father to son, from ancient times, for that Tudor Zbârnea is, above all, a colorist.

[7] *** "Zbârnea deliberately cultivates the equivocation and the gloom, the neutral observation and its own projection, not so much as to create states of insecurity in the exercise of reading, but to understand what are the mechanisms by which matter is organized and the spiritual task over-determines the world of substance.

He starts from the premise of the genuine creator who, in a moment of clairvoyance, has the intuition of a harmony beyond the senses that must be transferred from the virtuality into the act or, in other words, from the latent existence in the manifest of the reality.

The mist of ambiguity dissipates, the color leaves the practice of its own confession, the image diverges from the context and the eye begins to discern and recognize objects, faces, events and episodes isolated from a narrative covered by oblivion.

Tudor Zbârnea follows this odyssey of creation both from the perspective of the witness fascinated by the miracle and overwhelmed by his greatness, as well as from the creator himself whose gesture mixes the tenderness and the harshness, the paternal love and the lucidity of the master."
