2017

About the Item

In the Bedroom (A girl with a comb) - naive art, folk art, primitivism, made in red, blue, green, brown, pink 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.

    «Última cena» Collection: Muses Description: Acrylic on canvas, figurative, dark, Surrealism, modern "When a successful man with social prestige is pursued by some women who only see him as a means to take advantage of his success, without realizing that they are being watched by the owner of his heart." The artwork in question may be a visual representation of the complex dynamics at play in a love triangle. The man is described as successful and prestigious, with a position of power and influence that makes him a target for women who seek to take advantage of his status. However, there is also a suggestion that the man is not free to pursue these women, as he is already claimed by someone else. The focus is on the emotional tension and drama of the situation, with the viewer invited to imagine the thoughts and feelings of all parties involved. The artwork may convey a sense of longing, jealousy, or betrayal, with the owner of the man's heart struggling to come to terms with the attention he is receiving from other women. Overall, the artwork explores the complexities of love and desire, as well as the ways in which social status and power can impact our relationships with others. Victoria...
