About the Item

Some of Kreminsky's works give the impression of a designer, while others seem to have been painted by a theater artist, and sometimes they are purely decorative compositions, deliberately designed in a "flat" manner, with exaggerated color. The variety of the master's pictorial and graphic techniques is striking: from oil and pastel to etching, screen printing and digital graphics. But, regardless of the materials and techniques chosen by the artist, a special, unique algorithm for creating compositions can be read in his works. The initial "impulse" can be anything: a living observation, a musical theme from Minkus's "Don Quixote", a scientific article, a memory of a film, a natural sketch, a fragment of a dream, a photograph, an optical effect, an almost involuntary, unconscious movement of a pencil on paper. Kreminsky knows how to see the abstract in the real and the real in the abstract. The picturesque chaos instantly becomes a picture of a night city after the artist makes a few precise, almost filigree strokes: silhouettes of windows appear, a small figure under an umbrella at a bus stop, and street advertising.
