POSTSHOCK ART
This thought came to me at once after the first glance at the american
works of Valery Grigorovich and it doetsn't leave me till now.
3 years has passed since the first in the life of a young artist and
the last in Minsk personal exhibition.
While living in Belarus he suddenly fell in the gulf of Art with the
bravery of a child entering a fire. Salutary land of familiar realias was
left around.
Leaving for America he gave u usual life stereotypes.
The green ball of the Earth as it tumed 180 grad. and started to rotate
with a velocity of light. Day was mixed with Night. a baraage of something
unknown, magnetic and frightening fell upon him. Brushes, paint-World of
Art seemed to be the most haditual things he had.
From he first day in Amerca Valery started to collate original paintings
in museums with his favourite reproductions (Mark rothko, Roy Lichtenstein,
Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol!!!)He visited plenty of galleries freeling ome
kind of artistis shock.
Without any delay he rushed to his canvases. His usual pictorial technologies
ded not catch up with his inspiration and changing of impressions. He moved
to drawing. Paper and newly found simplifid technigues, sign language of
Art liberated his energy for slight of fancy.
Nevertheless colour was left as a main instrument Valery Grigrovich.
Adstraction ofplastic motives, laconic drevity of stylish forms, colour
tension, striving not to dissolve in the variety of the variety of the
world gave birth to a floating of artst's reactions on what he saw in a
new art and of his feeling from his new americam life.
