From January 2 to 12, the ArtMaison gallery will host the exhibition “Eternal Return” by Sergei Khokhlov and Andrei Vereshchagin.
In their work, Andrei Vereshchagin and Sergei Khokhlov express the idea that geometric forms are a universal language, an intermediate form between the image of the objective world and the supersensible, not referring to specific concepts like a hieroglyph, rune or Kabbalistic sign, but turning our perception to general laws existence, the repeating rhythms of human existence.
Eternal return (as Friedrich Nietzsche understood it - the possibility of endless repetition of any phenomenon in time and space) is manifested in the works of Andrei Vereshchagin through the collision of geometry and folds of textures. A sign generated from chaos, from the “folds of being” that Deleuze wrote about, and chaos expressed through a sign related to Plato’s “world of ideas.”
The German philosopher Eduard von Hartmann argued that the final state of the universe would be identical to the state in which it began.
Geometry in the works of Sergei Khokhlov is habitable space. His sculptures, located in the white emptiness of the hall, become a symbol of “the little man and his simple joys of life,” closed in cycles of “endless return.”
Repetition, according to Deleuze’s philosophy, is not content with multiplying patterns; it takes the concept out of itself, forcing it to exist in a multitude of patterns. Likewise, painting speaks of eternal, timeless phenomena, showing the Laws of the Universe in the variety of forms of images generated by the artist’s imagination. Repeating what was done earlier in the artist’s work is not evidence of a lack of talent, but a sign that the author feels the ideas in the air. Art is a source of repetition because no artistic use of an element is ever equivalent to its other uses.
Conceptual art and non-objective painting are transcendental because they go beyond sensory experience, in this way they are close to philosophy. But the difference between painting and philosophy is that the same thought in philosophy is tied to its verbal expression, but in painting the same thought lives in a variety of visual images.
