Alexander Berdysheff
Recognition System

About the Item

From the artist: "Combining dream-like, but still recognizable figurative elements with abstract shapes I explore and visualize complexity and paradoxes of human nature. Often it takes form of a mechanical construction, like in Recognition System, where such mechanism is imagined to be able to process information through perception." In his paintings, Berdysheff combines figurative, but often distorted, objects with pure forms and textural components. They coexist beyond any physical or logical limits, revealing the invisible tension and eternal struggle between (or inside) all forms of matter. This all works to allow doubt to develop in regards to “the reality of visible”. Born in the former Soviet republic of Georgia, Berdysheff's artistic career officially started in Scotland. Here, he took part in a post-graduate exchange program at the Glasgow School of Art, also known as Charles Rennie Mackintosh Building. After several solo and group exhibitions in Scotland, the Edinburgh School of Art hosted his major show during the Edinburgh International Festival in 1997. in 2000 he received the John Murray Thomson Award for his work in the Royal Scottish Academy Annual Exhibition. Since then, he participated in numerous shows worldwide. As for the United States, his work has been exhibited in Florida, Arizona and New York. In 2022 he took part in a group exhibition of six surrealist artists at Marietta Cobb Museum of Art.

  • In My Solitude
    Located in Ibadan, Oyo
    Nudity in art has historically been a contentious subject, often raising questions about beauty standards, objectification, and the human form. In "In My Solitude," however, Edwin treats nudity with sensitivity and purpose. The nude figure, devoid of clothing and external trappings, serves as a metaphor for vulnerability and raw authenticity. It becomes a powerful statement on embracing one's true self, stripped of societal expectations and external judgments. The choice of the yoga position is not arbitrary in Edwin's composition. Yoga has long been associated with self-discovery, inner peace, and spiritual enlightenment. The woman's serene posture exudes a sense of calmness and introspection. Through this position, Edwin suggests that solitude and self-reflection are integral to personal growth and inner strength. It encourages viewers to embrace moments of introspection and find solace in their own thoughts, ultimately leading to a deeper understanding of themselves. Edwin's meticulous attention to detail and symbolism further enriches the narrative of "In My Solitude." The subtle play of light and shadow highlights the contours of the woman's body, accentuating the vulnerability and emotional depth captured in the artwork. The artist's skillful brushwork evokes a sense of intimacy, drawing the viewer into the private world of the subject. The title itself, "In My Solitude," adds an additional layer of meaning. Solitude, often associated with loneliness, is reimagined as a source of inner strength and self-discovery. Edwin invites viewers to contemplate the transformative power of spending time alone, away from distractions and truly connecting with oneself. Crixtover Edwin...
