Grigory Katznelson. MAN WITH LANDSCAPE. Painting / objects Automatic translate

They say that a shell appears around a person contemplating the landscape. This shell is more spacious than you might think. It becomes an intermediate between landscape and man. If a person could tear off this shell and take it away, immense happiness awaited him, a paradise on earth. But for this you need to be extremely sensitive, possess tremendous strength and understand well what you are doing.

Henri Michaud

Landscape now - the concept of "car"
with painted blue lips
(like streets running in circles
like multi-colored brooding flags)
Landscape is always the concept of “work”
(like arrows falling into windows)
The opening of the "sunrise" and "sunset"
in the squares
knotted

The exhibition explores the problem of landscape, a person with a landscape and an individual person. Perhaps the landscape exists separately here, like a rectangular phrase taken out of the context of a film world. A person simply carries a landscape inside or around him. He says words in the margin. It interferes with the landscape, covering it with his nose and body. Man and landscape are reflected in each other in a mirror. "A man with a landscape" is almost "A man with a movie camera." Landscapes, people, letters, books and films are very similar. Moreover, they benefit from being next to each other. Although they are moving, as is well known, in different directions.
