Abstrakt

The article presents a set of works which are a reflection upon and, to some extent, a summary of the author’s previous accomplishments from the period of his fascination with Constructivism, the austere anti-aesthetic variation of geometric abstraction. An important question here is spontaneity of the painter’s actions or “switching off” consciousness in the creative act, which may lead to surprising results. Correcting chance means lending it author’s qualities. Chance is an important form-creating value in art, particularly modernist art (action painting, Art Informel, Tachisme). At the stage of building the first layer, substitute models used the element of chance through the action-painting method. The spontaneous image corrected at the second stage sanctioned the randomness function of the previous layer of painting matter. Both layers in a permanent dispute formed the outer matter and could exist only as a bond between those actions. For the artist they are a picture of a changing painter’s experience, just like flowing reality changes before our eyes.
