Dinu debuted in 1932 at the "Official Salon of White and Black" exhibition in Bucharest, with a self-portrait. She joined the Syndicate of Artists a year later, which enabled her to travel to
Balchik, a meeting place of the (mostly Jewish) avant-garde artists of the time. Between 1934 and 1939, she visited Balchik on several occasions and completed a number of works, befriending personalities such as
Victor Brauner,
Gellu Naum,
Sașa Pană, and
Geo Bogza. There she also met poet
Gheorghe Dinu, who became her husband. In 1939, the mayor of Balchik,
Octavian Moşescu, invited Dinu to exhibit her works alongside other artists in the city's school. After the
Second World War, Dinu was prohibited by the authoritarian
Romanian Communist Party from exhibiting her art and began working as a school teacher at a Jewish school in Bucharest. In 2008, Dinu had two exhibitions at the Museums of Art in
Constanța and
Tulcea, donating a part of her works to these institutions. In January 2009, at her centenarian anniversary, the National Foundation for Sciences and Art of the
Romanian Academy hosted a retrospective exhibition of her work. In 2016, on
International Women's Day, Dinu's works from various periods were displayed as part of the exhibition "Ages of Youth" at the "House of Arts" Cultural Center in Bucharest. Dinu's works can be found at the municipal Museums of Art of Constanța, Tulcea, Râmnicu Vâlcea; at the Metropolitan Library "Mihail Sadoveanu", at Eminescu's Memorial in Ipotești and private collections. ==Artistic style==
