About The Artwork

"Idols of reason" F. Bacon calls false habits and prejudices, Idols and false concepts that have already captivated the human mind and are deeply entrenched in it, so possess people's minds that they make it difficult for the truth to enter.There are four kinds of idols that besiege people's minds. In order to study them, we will give them names. Let's call the first kind the idols of the genus, the second the idols of the cave, the third the idols of the square and the fourth the idols of the theater.The idols of the gens find their foundation in the very nature of man, in the tribe or the very genus of people, for it is false to assert. that a person's feelings are the measure of things.This evil penetrates even deeper into philosophy and the sciences. In them, what is once recognized infects and subordinates the rest, even if the latter is much better and firmer. Oil painting on wood, 2021.

I was born in Moscow on 28 May 1974,began study paiting in 1981,graduated art school in Moscow 1991,studied in private art Studio 1991-1993.I began to paint as much as I can remember from 4 years of age ,since the late 80's I have been the author of more than 500 paintings,200 collages,100 sculptures and many drawings.Throughout his career ,the artist tried to draw everything that came to hand: emulsion paints, technical oil paints ,a variety of varnishes,acrylic paints ,gouache,watercolor,paint on metal,painted with tinting pastes mixed with water,crushed bricks, bitumen and of course the classic oil paints.I tried to experiment in all the styles of painting from realism to avant-garde.Experimenting, with different styles ,came to the conclusion that most gravitate to surrealism,and Russian Avant-garde of the early 20th years,very much in the mood to make collages,a bit still do sculpture.
