Tribute to San Petersboorg and Ladozhsky V.Sorokin.
"Also PAINTING. Painting is everything around.
To be a magician! Everything what the paint touches gets miraculously alive and starts to shine, one should remember about this and believe in fairy paints. Any pragmatic object gets into another dimension and starts a new life.
To paint more delicately, deeper, brighter, without fear, for tem to ask afterwards: and where is it? We don’t see anything. We also can do it like that.
And they shouldn’t see, it’s like the king’s new dress in “A King With No Clothes”. And the boy is always right.
A retrospective exposition is based not on a chronological row, but is hung in a free, na?ve, sublime and childish manner. The things which live together, appear together.
The show includes various objects, both functional and fragmentary. Iron, wood, canvas, cardboard – and oil painting on them.
Auktsyon’s decorations 1995-1997, 2010.
Paintings from 1993 to 2010.
Objects from 1992 to 2010.
This show is not a fashionable installation about “painting”, but it is painting, living and timeless".
