On the work of Denis Siniauski

An experiment is present in the artwork of Denis Siniauski. In this sense, there is a clear difference from postmodern aesthetics. His works call for one of the most representative languages in the history of avant-garde art: abstraction in its different versions, from informalism to geometry.

To my mind, universality is the distinguishing mark of this artwork. And that doesn't surprise us. Two of the greatest Russian artists of the twentieth century, Lissitsky and Kandisnky, committed themselves to a universal interpretation of art. Both of them were professors of the German Bauhaus, the great school that spread the principles of abstract art and architectural rationality. We can talk about a spiritual alternative in Kandinsky that is present in some works of this exhibition. I refer to the double direction of Russian art of the late nineteenth century: universal through the reception of the French culture, and mystical, because of the survival that manifests itself in the aesthetics of the icons, replicated the spirituality of the Holy Russia, which was explicitly reflected in the artwork. French informalism and spirituality are evident in Denis Siniauski.
