"In Search of Muse" - personal exhibition of Raushan Artykov

The modern interpretation of the muse is different from classical representations and does not use mysterious, romantic female images. The idealized representation of the muse is conveyed through the lines of the body. It is symbolic, abstract and spectacular. The object of inspiration of the 21st century is frank and natural, it is accessible and understandable. Openness can also be seen in the work of Raushan.

The poetry of the female body lines inspires many creative people for a reason. The silhouette is able to express not only beauty and elegance, but also the attitude of the creator of creative work. The natural beauty of a naked body perfectly conveys the mood and condition of a person. Images of nature will never go out of fashion, because they reveal to us the essence of man. The task of any work of art is to influence the soul of a person, to convey to the audience the thoughts of the author using the emotional perception of art.

The emotionality of the series of paintings by Raushan is the best suited for the first solo exhibition. Viewers will be able to feel the painting and get to know the young author better.

In this case, the technique and palette of Raushan Artykov, with the help of which he demonstrates a female silhouette, is an artist’s attempt to find his muse, to draw the attention of his viewer to the fundamentals of the concepts of beauty and emotion.
