Description of Romanian contemporary art
This is part of a description about the way that a Romanian contemporary artist creates his works. The context reads:
"Asa ca artistii plein air si impresionistii, el reda natura stilizand-o pana la cele mai mici detalii."
I am confused about the entire phrase and do not know if it is describing outdoor and impressionist style works, or whether this holds another meaning altogether.

En plein air is a French expression meaning “in the open air,” and refers to the act of painting outdoors with the artist’s subject in full view. Plein air artists capture the spirit and essence of a landscape or subject by incorporating natural light, color and movement into their works.

The high point of plein air art came with the emergence of Impressionism. Artists of that period included Monet, Renoir, Pissarro, Cezanne and Van Gogh. Interest in outdoor painting has remained constant since the 20th century. Today’s artists carry on the traditions of these past masters by capturing the light and movement in landscapes that can only come from seeing the subject outdoors in its natural form.

Note from asker:
| The first part of this does not make sense. Do you mean "outdoor" (as in somebody who paints outdoors)? |
