Daria Kotlyarova
Blow up

2017

About the Item

“Blow up” is a peculiar hommage towards Michelangelo Antonioni and Julio Cortazar. The color element here almost disappears, leaving a kind of neutral beginning, an elusive, but quite real equivalent of a fading light ... The metaphor “Blow up” is a rebirth, a new life ... A form of mental dialogue between the artist and the viewer by means of plastic language of the painting. In the modern world, the artist is a peculiar explorer of the time that he lives In. The “main character” of this world is a man whose gaze is turned inward. This view projects its existential reality, where the figurative language of painting is a method of transmitting abstract images of the experiences of the main characters and the time in which they exist on an equal footing with the viewer. Pictures of Daria Kotlyarova have no plot, at first glance, they have no action, but there is a moment. The moment before the second “before” ... and the viewer stops and freezes in tension, this is almost a psychological “cinema reception” that refers us to David Hockney’s paintings. The search for personal identification and artistic language can be seen in the hidden quotations of conceptual realism, symbolism and decorative principles of pop art. Daria Kotlyarova's works are in the collections of the Museum of Russian Art TMORA (USA, Minneapolis), the Kaluga State Art Museum, and in private collections in Russia, Italy, the USA, France, Serbia, and Croatia. Kotlyarova is a participant in exhibitions of young artists in the State Tretyakov Gallery, the Central House of Artists, the Museum of Revolution, the 1st Moscow International Biennale of Young Art, the Moscow International Art Salon, the Want Art Gallery (New York, USA) and others. In March 2018 in London, her work was presented at the Gracious Heart charity auction at Christie's office with the support of Askeri Gallery.

  • Hide and Seek (portrait) - abstract art , made in black and white, blue colors
    By Daria Kotlyarova
    Located in Fort Lee, NJ
    Hide and Seek (portrait) - abstract art , made in black and white, blue colors. The game of hide and seek. The leitmotif of the repeatability of the plot causes fear, fear is very romantic, this is the main motive of surrealism. Intrusive repeat of the plot. No fate. There is a choice. If everything is predetermined, there is no one to judge. In the modern world, the artist is a peculiar explorer of the time that he lives In. The “main character” of this world is a man whose gaze is turned inward. This view projects its existential reality, where the figurative language of painting is a method of transmitting abstract images of the experiences of the main characters and the time in which they exist on an equal footing with the viewer.

  • Negation (clockwork) - abstract painting, made in black, grey, green, red, blue
    By Daria Kotlyarova
    Located in Fort Lee, NJ
    Negation (Three backs on the background of the clockwork) - abstract painting, made in black, grey, green, red, blue colors. The painting “Negation” is a certain form of the game, when you don’t like something, you don’t just ignore it, you don’t see it. People living in big cities, in the constant stress of constant barriers to their hopes, desires and plans, should be able to rest and relax, whenever necessary. The game has a simple rule: if I do not see what scares me, then there is no fear. Three backs on the background of the clockwork, symbolize fear, laziness and illness, they are connected by red thread, the greatest obstacles of a person on the way to happiness. Clockwork is life. In the modern world, the artist is a peculiar explorer of the time that he lives In. The “main character” of this world is a man whose gaze is turned inward. This view projects its existential reality, where the figurative language of painting is a method of transmitting abstract images of the experiences of the main characters and the time in which they exist on an equal footing with the viewer.

Well preserved signature. contains bank stamps & endorsement; hinge marks on referees; minor vertical fold lines. David Hockney is one of the most influential British artists of the 20th century. Perhaps best known for his serial paintings of swimming pools, portraits of friends, and verdant landscapes, the artist’s oeuvre ranges from collaged photography and opera posters to Cubist-inspired abstractions and plein-air paintings of the English countryside. Often returning to a certain motif again and again, he probes the manifold ways one can see an image or a space. Hockney’s exploration of photography’s effect on painting and everyday life is evinced in his hallmark work A Bigger Splash (1967). “In art, new ways of seeing mean new ways of feeling; you can't divorce the two, as, we are now aware, you cannot have time without space and space without time,” he has explained. Born on July 9, 1937 in Bradford, United Kingdom, Hockney attended the Royal College of Art in London alongside R.B. Kitaj. At school, he studied under both Francis Bacon and Peter Blake, but also credits Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse for influencing his distinctive and varied style. In 1963, the artist traveled to Southern California for the first time and fell in love with the bright sunshine and easygoing lifestyle. Since then, he has alternated living and working between Yorkshire, United Kingdom, and Los Angeles, CA. In November 2018, his 1972 painting Portrait of an Artist (Pool With Two Figures...
