Elena Narkevich
The Girl in Red Beret with apples - naive art, made in red, green, blue colors

2017

About the Item

The Girl in Red Beret with apples - naive art, folk art, primitivism, made in red, green, blue colors. Elena Narkevich deliberately chooses naive art, like the famous artists Henri Rousseau and Niko Pirosmani, as their visual discourse, which is an ideal means for expressing and recreating a world in which happiness, humor, naivety, love and tranquility reign, all those broad spectra emotional states that reach us in pure form. Scenes from everyday life that take place in homes, in parks, at fairs, markets, make her narrative works something illustrative, without losing the quality of painting. Each scene (which tells and makes us dream in colors) is replete with small details, ornaments and skill (game) of color, which reveals the artist as an observant and very sensitive person, able to show in his works that sincere reality and (positive) attitude to to the person the artist wants to convey. The spectator, contemplating Helen's paintings, is fascinated by the balance of pure, peaceful art (filled with sincerity and tenderness). As Matisse said that "I dream of a balanced art, full of purity and tranquility, art without vain and restless plots, art that could rest the mind of an intellectual worker, business person, writer, just like a comfortable chair gives rest to a physically tired person." Elena Narkevich – master naive style, her work is known in Europe thanks to the ability to truly convey human emotions, delight, surprise, and sometimes sadness. Yelena was born in Minsk in 1964 and for many years she and her husband, also an artist Igor Fomin live in the province of Malaga, Spain. Igor was born in 1963 in Minsk. She is a perfect example naïf art from various countries of the former USSR, its contemporary primitives – another name for naïf painting – tend to reflect the excellent quality, as is demonstrated by the prizes which were awarded at the Naïf Competition of the Spanish Association of Painters and Sculptors. Elena Narkevich is an Eloquent example of this, whose painting we have recently seen in Spain and was very well received by collectors. Her exhibitions in Malaga, Madrid, Granada, etc… followed by Arte Santander and Interart Valencia through the services of the Sammer Gallery have represented a real discovery.

Kolkata Street, Acrylic on Canvas by Contemporary Indian Artist "In Stock"
By Dilip Chaudhury
Located in Kolkata, West Bengal
Dilip Chaudhury - Kolkata Street - 30 x 40 inches (unframed size) Acrylic on canvas Inclusive of shipment in roll form. Style : Dilip Chaudhury's works depict the Bengali countryside and his hometown Kolkata bathed in the monsoon rains. His black and white works are ever popular though of late he has been dabbling in colour. Dilip Chaudhury has been painting various scenes from everyday life of Calcutta & sometimes Banaras, in watercolour. From ancient monuments, streets & ghats, to a rickshaw puller in action, he is captured it all, beautifully. To somebody who has even a remote connection with Calcutta, he manages to bring a wave of nostalgia, as he symbolizes the character of the city of joy in his work. Like a true artist who has not been afraid of trying his hand at almost every subject and medium under the sun, Dilip has metamorphosed into a sought – after artist with a niche skill of creating above all, subjects of abundant beauty and character with a strong sense of perspective. A touch of red in his paintings symbolises optimism. Dilip has executed truly riveting canvasses, each of which has a unique story to narrate. They are not flat but have grandeur, movement, people and therefore, life infused into them. Sometimes Dilip uses his imagination to highlight the simple rickshaw puller of Kolkata. He creates stylistic compositions from unusual angles, which succeed in enthralling the viewer. About the Artist & his works : Born : Kolkata, West Bengal.
