Alexey Adonin

The abstract surrealist artist Alexey Adonin transforms painting into an enigma, guided by an intuition that stages works where light—whether pale or intense—both conceals and reveals a key embedded in a reality whose chromatic texture lends it an idealized character. The sensory qualities of color are inseparable and osmotic, enveloping these inscrutable landscapes as if they were the site of an oracle, within which a mystery unfolds, accessible to only a few. As the philosopher Theodor W. Adorno once noted, the most fitting notion for grasping the essence of art from a cognitive perspective is that of an enigma. In Adonin’s work, an enigma indeed exists, and he does not shy away from this mission.
