Statement
|
|
The Works of P. Veshchev are interesting not only in themselves, -art
critic H. Grigoriants comments, - that is, without question but again
and again they allow us to reflect on the essence of art in general and
about the special characteristic of modern art in particular. Here there
is everything debate between form and formlessness expressed in his
figurative style. He displays originality in his very individual choice
of colors. There is a luminescence distinguishing many of his works akin
only to the works of the old masters. In the eyes of the beholder they
appear to belong equally to the end of the 20-th century and the most
ancient culture. One of the motives of his creative work is to get to
the heart of both the past and the future, to illustrate both the
process and meaning of his subject. To sum it all up, he is an artist
portraying truth."
