Evgeny Romashko, artist
Russia, Moscow
A keen consideration of contemporary critical theory helps to discover an immense body of painterly tradition, which supplies and is hidden behind the abundant foliage of productive ideas. Some of them are consistently expressed by brilliant painter Evgeny Romashko whose art embodies the profound values of mastery, the succession of quest, and the renewal of expressive realistic content. Much has been written about Evgeny Romashko’s art, so another art-historical analysis of his newest landscapes will hardly add anything radically new to what had been said before. This obvious thought makes us ponder on the conditions of interpretation of academic art and traditional visual matter, which is distanced from the issues identified as contemporary. Is there a system of interpretation in which landscape and the whole traditional visual strategy become not only sources of aesthetic values but also ways of producing contemporary meanings? On which grounds should a productive analytical mediation stand, when traditional visual discourse is allotted with contemporary meanings, and art sees a new path for itself? Which interpretative models can be used to speculate on Evgeny Romashko’s painting?
