The first personal exhibition of Boris Caragea organised one year after graduating from the National School of Fine Arts, he enjoyed real success. Held in Dimitrie Paciurea's workshop, where the young artist was working as a result of the "Paciurea" scholarship, this first exhibition was positively received by the public. All his works were sold (some of them also appeared at the Official Salon of the same year), and the critics of the time rewarded Boris Caragea with glowing reviews. The lessons offered by Hrandt Avachian, Frederic Storck, Oscar Han and Dimitrie Paciurea proved to be totally prolific. Boris Caragea stands out with sculptures in a romantic-realist manner, close to the perceptions proposed by Bourdelle. The artist proves an imposing material force, but also the ability to focus his spiritual energy in a series of statues, monuments or portraits which ticked off a telluric massiveness. The interest for folk themes manifested particularly through the romantic evocations of sculpted forms. Another notable moment in the economy of Caragea's creation is represented by the meeting with sculptor Ivan Meštrović. The contact with the work of this Croatian artist was an intense visual experience, transposed in the tendency towards monumentality of the Romanian artist's sculptures. His searches in the female semantic of the body is revealed under a series dedicated to the nude. Complete master of the technique, Boris Caragea excels in the full and powerful shaping of expressive matter curved into calm contours. Mostly attracted by the gestures of the arms offers a personal sculptural language, and thus calms the tumult of the body.
