He was far from the very thought of speaking about His paintings, or explaining Himself, because each, even the most clever interpretation, necessarily violates the right of an individual to his own experience. Additionally, His painting technique did not start, at least not consciously, from a certain idea, neither it was a priori submitted to any message. If it still was present on his canvases, it was created spontaneously, during his gradual, often long-lasting, discharging through his battle with the matter. The work of art, he thought, is self-sufficient. If it is self-sufficient, like the experience of the work of art is always authentic – regardless of differences in quality – to limit that latent polyvalence, He, Isidor Vrsajkov, was sure, means to make a sin toward the observer. |
