ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This painting by Alexander Gerasimov, also known as Gera, was chosen for the cover of the book "Gingerbread for Those Who Aren't Afraid to Fall". Created in a style that combines elements of cubism, abstraction, and surrealism, the work conveys dark, dystopian imagery. In the foreground is a figure wearing a gas mask with a bright red nose, which contrasts with the cooler tones of the rest of the image. Faces in gas masks are a recurring motif in Gera's work, symbolizing fear, hidden truths, and a protest against the absurdity and violence of the surrounding world. The painting is executed in a painterly technique with characteristic paint drips that enhance the effect of a crumbling order and chaos. This image embodies not only the struggle with personal fears but also a general sense of anxiety and alienation in society.
