Contemporary Ukrainian artists

[Евгений]

Art should have a provocative and powerful visual characters. If there is no provocation, the social environment refers to the art as a thing, an attribute of life. Work of art having a strong visual hieroglyph always visible, regardless of what genre it is made. It destroys their competitors in the same way as the leader of a wolf pack beats all who rebel against him. Fight in works of art is decided at the visual image. Yes! We are all competitors and have nothing to deceive the viewer. And in general, art is religion. Нет веры в искусство – нет самого искусства. Without faith, the collector does not get a work of art. Everything is on the faith!

On the other hand, one wonders why and what it took to develop this skill to move in all directions at once - to the West and the East, to be closed and open, internal and external? Sitting in the province by the sea ", drawing huge monsters, collect the students to adhere to painting at a time when all around have long abandoned the country is occupied? In this sense, Alexander Roytburd can be called non-displaced person, in contrast to his senior colleague Ilya Kabakov, who so loves to flirt with the fact that he - a displaced person. All turned out very well - modern art had been established in a separately taken portofranko. But who will answer if there was such a sense of the heroic efforts of training in the split of his own consciousness. Justification is only in the unfathomable faith in the power of art as such.
