About this artwork
The face emerges from the layers of the earth, as if nature is trying to remember us. This is the imprint of memory on matter after a dialogue with the past.The blurred faces of the elders, washed away by time like waves from the shore, embody Cartesian doubt.: What do we know, even if our memory is melting?The truth here is not in thinking, but in oblivion and decay. The elders are witnesses whose bodies have woven the fabric of history and ecology,… but their wisdom has almost been erased by indifference.In the metamodern oscillation, the irony of disappearance is juxtaposed with reverence for the departed. Ochre-earthy palette — faded scrolls and dry soil: old age is like the soil for a new one, if we learn to listen.The series is an axis between memory and destruction, fragility of the body and fortitude. The look doesn't accuse — it reminds: We didn't start here and we won't end here until we hear from those who came before us.
Alexander Chalovsky is an artist who works in the style of modern art, graphics, and collage. He is also a professor of art and a member of the International Federation of Artists.
His first public exhibition took place in 1992, commemorating the closing down of Teeshen Market. During 1993-1994, he participated in the controversial exhibition "The New Year’s Outrage" at the CHA. A highlight of this period of his career was his creative collaboration with the renowned patron and artist Sergei Kuskov.
One of Alexander Chalovsky's most significant projects was titled "The Method of Nureyev", which fully showcased his unique artistic method and style. This project was inspired by and dedicated to the work of the world-famous ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev.
As an artist, Chalovsky enjoys experimenting and searching for new ways to combine art and science. His deep studies of new concepts and trends in philosophy, along with inspiration drawn from poetry and anthropology, have significantly influenced his artistic vision, expanding the forms and philosophy of his work.
As a result of these studies, Chalovsky has created a large collection of paintings, showcasing a progression from the abstract art of the 1990s to his more figurative works, which combine line art with oil painting based on Chinese graphic techniques. Technically, he has employed the concept of appropriation, drawing from the graphic methods and artworks of Austrian artist Lembruck. His embrace of Expressionism, his study of Egyptian art and ancient myths, and his engagement with the fantasy worlds of the Strugatsky brothers have all contributed to the development of his distinct artistic style.
With his deep knowledge of art history and modern artistic trends, Chalovsky is a compelling storyteller and a popular lecturer on both traditional academic and contemporary art.
His artworks have been exhibited internationally, including at The Russian Cultural Centre in Paris, France, and in Washington, USA, during the Kirov Academy Days. He has also showcased his work at the 5th Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art and held a solo exhibition at the Department of the Pushkin Museum of Art in Kazan Kremlin, where one of his paintings was accepted as a gift to the museum.
