About the Item
The diptych Untitled is part of the Cameo series by Anton Kushaev. Cameo (from the Old French camaieu - treasure, jewel) is a kind of gem, a carved semi-precious stone with a convex relief image.
The Cameo series is formed like a poetic text. Anton is inspired by works of Russian symbolism, iconography and Soviet modernism, melting everything into a strange collage. Monuments and frames, flowers and architectural forms turn into a barely readable elusive statement. As in the poetry of Symbolism, the moods in these works are contradictory - from the desire for innovation to the use of traditional forms. The blue color that unites all graphics is a limitation and at the same time a reference to the coloristic culture of death, the surface of the chroma key and the “missing” color among the ancient Greeks.

Anton Kushaev, born in. 1983, graduated from an icon painting school, but his main inspiration has always been the visual style of metaphysical paintings and surrealism.

- "Be Born From Me #1, " Graphite and Acrylic on Canvas, Symbolism, Indian ArtistLocated in Houston, TXThis graphite and acrylic painting on canvas is from a series called "Lovers and Assassins." Here you can see Bhatt playing with the idea of seduction, self-sacrifice, persecution, belief systems, and radicalization. Amita Bhatt received her BFA from the Maharaja Sayajirao University, Vadodara, India and her MFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art, Baltimore, Maryland. Bhatt’s work has been exhibited at noteworthy venues such as the Bluestar Contemporary Art Center, Walters Art Museum, The Station Museum of Contemporary Art, and The Project Row Houses, all in the United States as well as Museo Pedro de Osma in Peru. Amita Bhatt has also been the recipient of several prestigious awards and recently served as a Grant Panelist on the National Endowment for the Arts. Bhatt's works are included in many important private and public collections. Bhatt digs deep into world philosophies and mythologies to answer questions pertaining to our political as well as personal belief systems. Unafraid to explore uncomfortable territories, Amita mines from a range of sources to create hybrid creatures that are often symbolic of man’s psychological condition in an angst-ridden zeitgeist. In exploring issues of identity and violence, Bhatt’s research led her to the beginnings of mankind. Most ancient creation myths claim chaos to be the central truth marking the beginnings of the world. Should turbulence then be viewed as essential to new beginnings? Bhatt’s characters are packed with irony, humor and indifference, and navigate intense color fields, all in search of wisdom and truth. They mirror the tumultuous times we live in, yet they know that there are deep Karmic mysteries that need to be understood and that HOPE in the end is what will sustain them.
