In Pechersky Gallery opens exhibition of the artist Eugene Dedova Start
January 25 in the gallery of Marina of the caves at the Winery will open a personal exhibition of graduate Start Evgeny Dedov “Models”.
the New project of Evgeny Dedov puts before the audience the question about the meaning and purpose of painting after painting. Impersonal series of portraits is the result of mixing of two traditions: the conditional of classical Russian and European modernist.
the Starting point of a project was drawing and picturesque classes in Vienna Academy of Arts. In his works, the artist managed to overcome the thin line between the student's sketch and completed work. Picturesque reflex grandfather brought to perfection, he is interested in the literal transfer of their artistic experiences and sensations to the surface of the canvas. Check the kind of feelings expressed by some of the older media of painting. The artist deliberately refuses the mimesis. The end product of his work is not a portrait as such, but a kind of mold, punch card individual personality. Following the logic of Jean Bodrijjar, we can say that the characters of the grandparents only simulate its presence. The refusal of the transfer image, i.e., specific traits of individuals, deprives the characters grandfathers external, superficial spiritual content inherent in the psychological portraits of the XIX century.
Evgeny Dedov received a classical education in KHPA them. Stieglitz. Following academic tradition, the artist continues his education from the Vienna Academy of fine Arts. Currently lives and works in Austria.
